About our Online School

Independence Charter Academy is an online independent study program for children enrolled in transitional kindergarten through 12th grade. As a part of the Helendale School District, our students have access to all of the programs available through a traditional brick and mortar school with the flexibility of completing their schoolwork whenever is most convenient for them.

Your child’s success is our #1 goal, which is why our teachers are available for our students 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
