The Education Freedom Foundation is proud to collaborate with Optima Academy Online (OAO), a pioneering Virtual Instruction Provider (VIP) that redefines online learning through immersive virtual reality (VR) integration. OAO delivers a dynamic educational experience, offering classroom-based online courses and virtual field trips that engage scholars in vivid, interactive environments.

OAO combines time-honored classical instructional methods with a robust, enduring curriculum and state-of-the-art VR technology. This unique blend fosters deep academic engagement, enabling students to explore subjects through innovative and memorable experiences.

Their commitment to a virtue-centered education empowers students to embrace moral, social, and civic values woven throughout the curriculum. Scholars engage with great books, tackle challenging ideas and philosophies, and study foundational languages such as Latin. OAO’s dedicated academic team cultivates confident communication skills, nurturing articulate and thoughtful individuals across all grade levels.

Through this partnership, we can offer school founders and families a transformative educational model that honors tradition while embracing the possibilities of modern technology, preparing students for a lifetime of learning and virtuous leadership.

Classical education draws the best lessons from 4,000 years of educational tradition to prepare students for the challenges of today and tomorrow, with moral excellence, civic virtue, and intellectual fortitude.

We believe Aristotle said it best that “Educating the mind without educating the heart is no education at all,” and OAO exists to educate the whole student – mind and heart.
