It was founded in 2002 to meet the needs of at-risk students, but has gained popularity in meeting needs such as remediation requirements, gifted/talented students, transfer student assistance, and alleviation of overcrowding. Its focus is on supplemental courses.

Between September 2009 and August 2010, Kiel eSchool had 277 semester course completions by Kiel students.
