Scott+Scott Attorneys At Law LLP Files Securities Class Action Against Stride, Inc Scott+Scott Attorneys at Law LLP has filed a securities class action lawsuit in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia against Stride, Inc. and certain of its directors and officers (collectively, “Defendants”). The Class Action asserts claims under §§10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (15 U.S.C. §§78j(b) and 78t(a)) and U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission Rule 10b-5 promulgated thereunder (17 C.F.R. §240.10b-5) on behalf of all persons and entities other than Defendants who purchased or otherwise acquired Stride securities between October 22, 2024 and October 28, 2025, inclusive (the “Class Period”), and were damaged thereby (the “Class”). The Class Action filed by Scott+Scott is captioned: MacMahon v. Stride, Inc., et al., Case No. 1:25-cv-02019. The Class Action alleges that, during the Class Period, Defendants made misleading statements and omissions regarding the Company’s products and services to public and private schools, school districts, and charter boards. Throughout the Class Period, Stride represented to investors that “these products and services, spanning curriculum, systems, instruction, and support services are designed to help learners of all ages reach their full potential through inspired teaching and personalized learning.” Unbeknownst to investors, Stride was inflating enrollment numbers, cutting staff costs beyond required statutory limits, ignoring compliance requirements, and losing existing and potential enrollments. Defendants’ materially false and misleading statements during the Class Period resulted in members of the Class purchasing or otherwise acquiring the Company’s securities at artificially inflated prices, thus causing damages when the truth was revealed.

Gallup-Mckinley County Schools File Fraud Complaint Against Stride, Inc. Alleging Profit-Driven Abuse of Minority-Majority Public School District The Gallup-McKinley County Schools (GMCS) Board of Education has filed a verified complaint against Stride, Inc., charging the publicly traded for-profit virtual education provider with fraud, deceptive trade practices, systemic violations of law, and intentional and tortious misconduct designed to maximize profit margins at the expense of students and their education, in which a vast majority of students are Native American. Allegations of Profit Before Students; The complaint, filed in New Mexico's11th Judicial District Court, asserts that Stride executives knowingly: Inflated enrollment numbersby retaining "ghost students" on rolls to secure state funding per student. Cut staffing costs by assigning teachers' caseloads far beyond the required statutory limits, some exceeding 200 students each. Ignored compliance requirements, including background checks and licensure laws for its employees, and ignored federally mandated special education services to students. Suppressed whistleblowers who documented financial directives from Stride's leadership to delay hiring and deny services to preserve profit margins. According to whistleblower testimony cited in the complaint, senior Stride finance executives explicitly rejected requests to hire additional teachers, even when warned that the company violated a New Mexico statute. Instead, executives ordered additional staff cuts to ensure profit targets were met. Stride continues to assert legal claims against the School District despite admissions from its corporate leadership to the misconduct and has relied on a disinformation strategy to distract from its misdeeds. GMCS's lawsuit contends that Stride's practices, while boosting short-term profitability, came at enormous long-term cost: a 27.67% graduation rate in 2024 (down from 54% in 2023), substandard test scores in every subject, and widespread loss of public trust. The complaint calls for compensatory and punitive damages, triple damages under New Mexico's Unfair Trade Practices Act, and restitution of taxpayer funds. More broadly, the case highlights the inherent risks in publicly traded education models that tie shareholder value to cost-cutting in already under-resourced schools and school districts.

K12 Inc. Sued for Violations of the Federal Securities Laws; Investors Should Contact Block & Leviton LLP Due to the global COVID-19 pandemic, school districts nationwide were forced to cancel or limit in-person classes and shift to online and virtual learning. K12 Inc. appeared primed to benefit from this shift and embarked on a campaign to portray itself as capable and ready to take advantage of the shift to virtual instruction. In reality, K12 was neither ready nor capable. As this became clear to the market, the stock price plunged over 50% from its 2020 peak price of over $50.00 per share. A lawsuit has been filed against K12 and certain of its executives in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia. The lawsuit is captioned Lee v. K12 Inc., et al., No. 1:20-cv-01419 (E.D. Va.). The suit alleges that K12 issued false and misleading statements concerning, among other things, K12’s technological capabilities, infrastructure, and expertise to support the increased demand for virtual and blended education necessitated by the COVID-19 pandemic. The suit further asserts that K12 lacked adequate cybersecurity protocols and protections to prevent the disabling of its computer systems, yet misrepresented its data security strength. On August 26, 2020, reports emerged that K12’s training for teachers in Miami-Dade County Public Schools, one of the nation’s school districts, had been ineffective. On this news, K12’s stock fell by 7% over two days. Then on August 31, 2020, K12’s platform experienced major technical issues, disruptions, and a series of cyberattacks. The Miami-Dade superintendent revealed that the district had never signed its $15.3 million contract with K12. In mid-September, Miami-Dade County and the Beaufort County School Board both voted to terminate their contracts with K12. Annuncio • Jan 04

By the third day of classes, September 2, 2020, Miami-Dade County students and teachers reported numerous additional technical issues and a total of twelve intermittent cyber-attacks that led to K12’s learning platform being effectively dysfunctional. In response, the Miami-Dade County School District called a Board meeting to discuss K12’s many failures. During the meeting, Miami-Dade County Public Schools Superintendent Alberto Carvalho revealed that he never signed the $15.3 million no-bid contract with K12 and the school district had never paid K12 for the provision of its services and products. A week later, after another Board meeting that lasted over 13 hours and included 400 speakers, the Miami-Dade County Public School Board voted to terminate its $15.3 million contract with K12 on September 10, 2020. Finally, Beaufort County School District board member John Dowling stated that he had lost confidence in K12’s ability to provide educational solutions for the district and, on September 17, 2020, moved to terminate the district’s contract with K12.
