Pasco Innovative eXperiences & e-Learning (PIXeL)
At Pasco School District, we believe in harnessing the power of 21st-century technology to make learning not just informative but truly immersive. The Pasco Innovative Experiences and e-Learning (PIXeL) Academy is our exciting initiative that empowers K-8 students to thrive in a dynamic online platform of instruction. Here, learning comes to life in ways that are both engaging and impactful.
PIXeL is remote learning with parent coached instruction. The program is 80% Synchronous, meaning teachers and students engage with course content at the same time, and 20% Asynchronous, meaning the teachers and students engage with course content at different times.
