K12 provides a wide range of online learning opportunities for public and private school students. Its extensive catalog includes more than courses in subjects such as math, science, social studies, and language arts.
Online schools and classes give parents more control over how their children learn, making online education a great alternative for students who have difficulty reaching their potential in their current schools.

A typical example of a classroom I have come across was characterized thus: It was small, cramped and its entrance was through another classroom. On top of that, it was near the train tracks on one side and the wood and metal shop on the side. It was noisy, and students were easily distracted.
Teaching in this classroom was equally tough, it is of no-doubt that effective learning cannot take place in this type of classroom.
A well-equipped class with space and the least amount of distractions will usually help students — especially those with learning disabilities — to focus on instructions. Safety, or the sense of feeling safe, can affect student learning. Having taught at a school that was once plagued by riots, student fights, and gang problems, this writer had seen what happened when student safety has been compromised. If students feel safe, they will not have to worry about conflicts on campus.
It has been a long-held assumption that curriculum and teaching have an impact on learning. However, it is becoming more apparent that the physical condition of our schools can influence student achievement.
School facilities constitute major determining factor toward ensuring quality education. It is one of the yardsticks for measuring the level of educational growth and development. It implies substantial cost of the school system for their establishment, if not properly managed and maintained, it will affect the academic performance of students.
School facility is the process of ensures that buildings and other technical systems support the operations of an organization. Programme in Educational Building PEB , described school facilities as the practice of co-ordination of the physical workplace with the people and the work of the organization; it integrates the principles of school administration, architecture and the behavioural and engineering sciences.
Provision of good quality education require adequate physical facilities such as classrooms, laboratories, human resource in form of teachers and support staff which are acquired based on availability of financial resources in schools.
Facilities refers to the entire environment of the school or an organisation, it refers to both the physical and material resources available to the students and teachers in the school to facilitate teaching-learning process. The classrooms; the libraries and the laboratories for sciences are the three main areas of facilities identified in the school system or environment Onyeji, Taking library for example, Yeater states that in terms of the availability of the libraries of the school facilities, a great many of our secondary schools have no functional libraries, and where some libraries are found, there are no new or current books that are relevant to the current secondary school programmes.
In effect this has been affecting students learning ability and subsequently affecting their academic performance. The importance and uses of the library cannot be under-rated. Libraries and books give great assistant assistance to both the teachers and the learners. In a situation whereby our secondary school students are left with no choice to make their text books as the only source of knowledge, the danger of exposing them to obsolete knowledge in old books donated by the British Council several years ago as one normally finds in the old secondary schools should not be overlooked.
According to Dada anyone who is familiar with secondary school classrooms in Nigeria will agree that no meaningful teaching — learning activities can effectively take place in most of them, even if teachers are God-sent and the learners are celestial pack of highly intelligent personalities, the problem is that where there are classrooms, they are overcrowded to the extent that rooms originally meant for between 30 and 40 students, take between 60 and 80 students with a good number of them sitting on windows.
In this situation, neither the teacher nor the students can move freely as expected in our secondary school classrooms. This is why many teachers do not give assignments to such large number of students regularly as expected.
On science laboratories, Olarewaju claims that only few schools has science laboratories which are well equipped to carry out scientific experiments in courses such as Biology, Physics, and Chemistry. A good number of schools teach biology or chemistry as if they are non-science subjects without laboratory.
It should be noted that the greatest failure rate in the sciences because our schools lack the essential science materials but rather, resort to the theoretical science without the use of laboratory. The contention is that the nation has been unfair not only to students in our secondary schools but also to herself. This is because no nation can develop technologically through theoretical teaching of science subjects, under poor educational facilities, no meaningful teaching and learning can take place, and the normal refrain in the educational circle is that all is well with our secondary schools.
This refers to the kind of atmosphere under which the individual interact with the other persons in the school.
