Revise first line: Apex Learning, Inc. is a privately held provider of digital curriculum for grades 6-12 headquartered in Seattle, WA.

If digital curriculum is deemed a buzzword perhaps online learning products would work? I see that solutions has been flagged as a buzzword.

Revise second line: The company also has an accredited online high school, Apex Learning Virtual School.^[1]
Add third line: Apex Learning is accredited by AdvancED,^[2] approved by CollegeBoard^[3] for Advanced Placement courses, and its courses approved for National Collegiate Athletic Association eligibility.^[4]

The NCAA source is the most recent I can find. This is a third-party site that mentions NCAA approval, if that's a better source.

In first line of the History section, change K-12 to material for grades 6-12.
Please correct the date in third paragraph in History section to 2007: Since 2015, Apex has been approved by the College Board for Advanced Placement courses. The College Board table of AP Courses linked in Reference #6 scrolls back to 2007 (see the little arrow above Authorized Courses on the page).
