About The Ogburn School

The Ogburn School was founded in 1998 by Minnie Ogburn, with a primary goal of providing a quality and safe educational alternative to traditional learning. As a parent, former teacher and curriculum coordinator, Ms. Ogburn recognized the need for a better distance learning platform.

Her daughter, Brandy Carvalho, joined shortly after that to utilize her program management and communication skills to streamline and advance this new distance learning platform. After years of providing distance learning opportunities to thousands of students, The Ogburn School was one of the first, accredited, schools to provide a fully online learning platform and dedicated learning management system.

The Ogburn Online School now has an entire staff of teachers, instructors, learning coaches, administrator professionals, academic guidance counselors, testing managers, course designers, success coaches, a registrar, admissions specialists, admissions directors, customer service representatives, billing and finance professionals, and support staff members that are all here to help provide a better, safer and quality education to our students.

As a leading online school, The Ogburn School is regionally, nationally, and internationally accredited enabling us to offer enrollment options to students worldwide. Our learning management system is designed with user-friendliness in mind, allowing students of all ages, from kindergarten to 12th grade, to easily log in and start their work. Parents and guardians can log in to track progress and grades effortlessly. We have integrated a Message Center into the online profiles, making it a breeze to contact a teacher, advisor, or the Help Center.
