In 2012, Sal Khan wrote The One World Schoolhouse, in which he outlines how modern education developed and how Khan Academy came to be. But, most importantly, the book outlines a vision for the future of both in-person and online education given the tools we have and the need for many more people to participate in the knowledge economy. In 2014, He founded Khan Lab School to test and refine these ideas in an actual school setting.
Today, Khan Lab School has expanded to Wichita, KS as a 4th to 9th grade independent school that’s housed inside the brand new Wichita Learning Lab. The Lower School (4th-5th) cohort and Middle School (6th-8th) cohort will work in person. The High School (9th grade) will be a hybrid cohort that operates in-person and virtually with classmates across the Khan Schools Network.

Our purpose is to develop new, personalized practices that center around the student. We believe that young people are capable of far more than society currently recognizes, and we create and test learning experiences to share with the world. In keeping with Sal Khans "One World Schoolhouse" philosophy, we provide an extended-year, extended-day, mixed-age program with a project-based learning approach. Our academic experience is coordinated by a team of Advisors, Content Specialists, and Associate Teachers who guide students through gradually increasing levels of independence.
