Connections Academy

My daughter enrolled her freshman year and is currently finishing up her junior and looking forward to completing her senior year with MCA. Can not say enough positive about our experience. The curriculums, the teachers, the advisors and overall support has been nothing short of amazing. They continue to amaze me each year.

Connections Career Academy has been a saving grace for my daughter! She struggled for so long with bullying, anxiety and panic attacks. This caused many issues with her grades. Not only has her short time at Connections Career Academy shown her true potential in academics, she also has had zero panic attacks and anxiety is a million times better! The teachers are quick to answer questions and incredibly helpful! Classes my daughter struggled with in a brick and mortar school, she no longer struggles with because the teachers not only thoroughly go through it during live lessons but they also give different videos of the same thing being taught a different way. We are so grateful for Connections Career Academy and are so blessed to be a part of it!

My son has social anxiety and a learning disability so we decided that online school would be perfect for him. When we signed him up we had no idea what kind of hell was in store. When he needed help from a teacher they were always out for one reason or another causing him to get behind. He ended up barely failing 2 classes so he has to do summer school. Not only that it's $325 for one class in summer school! I'll have to pay $650 for his teachers failure to help. Summer school in a public school was $50 for all classes needed to be redone for my other son and they actually get a real teacher with them for it! This place scams you on so many things

At first, the teachers and everyone seems so helpful and wants to get you enrolled. I specified that email is best communication, as I have very bad cell service and work from home. They say that this is not a homeschool and actually a public school but however i disagree- When my kids went to an actual public school, their grades were above average. At this school they are plunging fast and have no assistance from the teachers or principal. They even locked my parental account to submit their assignments because I didn't call them or receive their calls, when from the get go i specified EMAIL was the best form of communication but all of the sudden that was not acceptable. Do not waste your time and send your kids here. It is more hardship and the education received is BELOW what kids need. I am withdrawing them ASAP. New Mexico Location

I have all 4 of my grandchildren enrolled at SCCA, my girls have been in SCCA since k-5, my grandson started at SCCA in the third grade, he was enrolled in another virtual school, but with the freedom SCCA gave us I chose to enroll him here also, best thing I could've done, the staff here are amazing, they go out of their way to accommodate, they have tutors (live) in case your student needs a little extra help and it's free, I'm proud to say my grandson will be graduting 5/29/24 from SCCA, I tell ya... you can't go wrong with South Carolina Connections Academy.

As a single Mom that travels as a health care provider our family needed the flexibility to attend school anywhere, and after having my child assaulted in a traditional public school we opted for on line. However our experience has been very much less than acceptable. I am an older mom and some of the assignments were confusing and hard to navigate. The curriculum is not engaging for my child and it became a FIGHT to help her complete the assessments. Our relationship has suffered because of this. She has went from an A-B student to a D-F student. When I asked for help, I was told this was a you problem not a we problem. Very little to no help was offered. In summary, I would continue to look at other options if considering this particular school.

It's not a terrible curriculum it's the staff, The teachers and administration are terrible. When reaching out for assistance the condescending tones are offensive. I truly believe some staff are semi prejudice. I am currently in the process of disengaging my student for another learning platform. This school is terrible and their system needs an overhaul immediately. Learning coaches don't have enough access to say We are the teacher.

My grandson was enrolled in the Arkansas Academy in late March and though we had to go through several hurdles, overall he is satisfied. They do add a LOT of work for the students to complete on a daily basis and it can be hard to keep up but my grandson pressed his way through with the support of his teachers. One teacher in particular called, texted and face-timed me and my grandson on the last day of school to help and make sure he got his assignments in on time. She stayed with him until after 9 pm. She was amazing. This was only our first year and we are hoping this upcoming year is a great as the first short time with the academy.

Our son is in the process of completing grade 9 at Connections Academy. He has attended Connections Academy from grade 5 through grade 9 and is enrolled to attend for his sophomore year. While the curriculum can be challenging at times, the support of the staff and administration is excellent. Questions are answered in a timely manner and are always addressed with kindness and consideration. We highly recommend Connections Academy to families searching for an online school.

Connections Academy is the best online school choice. I have been a learning coach with Connections Academy for 5 years and my children absolutely love it. All the same joys of public school in the comforts of your own home. Easy to navigate website, extremely helpful staff and teachers. This program has wonderful tools and tips for parents and children to make learning fun and easy. I truly recommend Connections Academy to any family who is looking for online learning as a schooling option. My family and I are looking forward to many more years of learning fun with Connections Academy.
