The K12 Zone Report
June 11th
🎉 Want to Lead a Fun Summer Activity — and Get Rewarded?
We’re looking for K12 staff to host one-time summer events in the National Zones — and we’ll send you a $50 gift card as a thank-you when your activity runs in all four National zones!
Think simple, student-friendly, and fun:
🎤 Karaoke or trivia
📖 A quick read-aloud
🧁 A cooking or craft demo
🕹️ A mini game or club session
We’ll take care of setup and support — all you need to do is show up and help students have a good time.
✅ Runs in all 4 Zones (we’ll schedule it for you)
✅ Must be completed before summer ends
👉 Interested? Submit your idea below — even if it’s just a rough draft!
🚀 Classroom Zone Button Delayed Until July — But You Can Still Request One Now!
We’re working hard to make the “Create Your Own Classroom Zone” button as seamless as possible — but it won’t be ready until sometime next month. Thanks for your patience as we get it just right!
In the meantime, you can still request a Classroom Zone the traditional way using the link below. It typically takes 1–2 weeks, and once it’s ready, you’ll receive an email from Sam at Topia with your personal Classroom Zone link.
📬 Want one now?

💡 Have you thought about using AI to help you build your Zone?
Check out the incredible video below showing how Carrie Quinn at CVA used ChatGPT to create her amazing Club Zone — and imagine what you could build too!
📢 Most Schools Now Have National Zone Access!
The majority of schools have now been added to the K12 National Zones for the summer! 🎉
Students should be able to log in and explore using the link below.
📌 If students age 12 or under are having trouble accessing the Zones, it may be because they still need guardian consent. Please remind families to complete the quick consent process to avoid login issues.
🔗 Key Links:
✅ Available Worlds (Zone Login): http://zone.k12.com/t/auth/sso-worlds?autosso=true
✅ Zone Consent Site: www.consent.k12.com
Thanks for helping students jump into the Zones with ease — we’re so excited to have everyone exploring this summer!
🏫 Let’s Build the Ultimate Back-to-School Zone — Together!
We’re creating a ready-to-use Orientation Zone Template that any school can customize for the start of the year — but we can’t build it without your insight.
✅ What should be in every school’s virtual home base?
✅ What made your school’s Zone shine last year?
✅ What do you wish you had seen in your orientation space?
