About BlendEd

The BlendEd Consortium was founded in 2013 by The Athenian School, The College Preparatory School, Lick-Wilmerding High School, Marin Academy, and The Urban School in order to jointly offer a set of blended classes combining face-to-face and online instruction. Our membership expanded to include The Branson School in 2019-2020 and then the San Francisco University High School in the 2020-2021 school year – 7 school partners for our 7th year of BlendEd.

Together, our Consortium is committed to blending the best of all possible learning ingredients: online, in-person, experiential, authentic, immersive, local, and beyond. The 2023-2024 school year marks our 10th anniversary of offering remarkable BlendEd courses!
