Early Findings

E-Learning Market SizeIn our initial search, we found that there are no market reports that segment online learning down to k-8 as most companies that provide online learning include highschool in their curriculum. Due to this, research was expanded to include k-12 companies.
The overall United States education market was valued at $1.35 trillion in 2017 with a CAGR of 4.5% between 2018 and 2026.
In 2017, cloud-based learning accounted for 39.08% of the market with a CAGR of 5.7%. K-12 programs accounted for 54.23% of the market. 
Using the above statistics we can calculate the market size of k-12 learning in the United States in value as $286.11 billion in 2017 (1.35 trillion*0.5423%=732.11 billion [k-12 market]; 732.11 billion*0.3908=286.11 billion).
Assuming a CAGR of 5.7%, we can calculate the current market as follows:
2018: $302.42 billion
2019: $319.66 billion
2020: $337.88 billion
