Every student who finds TOPS arrives with a different story.

Some were bored in classes that moved too slowly. Some struggled to focus in a traditional school environment. Some were high-achieving students looking for the challenge of AP courses and dual enrollment. Others simply needed a school that better fit their lives and goals.

What they found at TOPS was a tuition-free Tennessee public school with local teachers, flexible learning, meaningful academic opportunities, and a proven track record of success.

No matter your student's story, TOPS may be the right fit.

Student athletes, performers, frequent travelers, and families who don't fit the traditional mold have always had to make hard choices about school.

TOPS removes that conflict.

Students in grades 6 through 12 can keep up with AP courses, dual enrollment opportunities, and a full public school curriculum from wherever they are in Tennessee. Local Tennessee teachers stay connected. The education doesn't stop because your schedule doesn't.

Tuition-free. Fully public. Built for real life.
