Agave Distance Learning (AGAVE) is located in the US state of Arizona. It is part of the Tucson Schools district, through which its diplomas are awarded. Agave is a tuition-free programme for qualified Arizona students, offering core, honors and AP classes (as well as credit recovery/acceleration). The school district is partnered with the private Kaplan Virtual Education to create the Agave Distance Learning school.
The school serves Arizona students in grades 9–12 and gives access to a complete online curriculum. Courses are self-paced, although teachers are available as needed. Students may opt to earn a diploma through Agave or have credits transferred to their own school.
