Edgenuity

Edgenuity responded to me quickly and answered the questions I had in a very helpful and knowledgeable manner.

Edgenuity has high quality curriculum as well as excellent support staff options. When I had a tech issue chat support was quick to help! Thanks!

It only boosted my low score on 10 or 20 precent and i don't like that. It also doesn't give as many free chances to try again as I need.

I read the reviews and assume two things: 1 students were provided MyPath a supplemental program that remediates or accelerates the learner based on their math or English skills. Otherwise the content is marked as 6-12.
2. It appears schools do not have the courses set up correctly. The schools that are having difficulty should call and ask for some assistance.
What I can tell you as a district that has used this for 10 years is that it compares to no other for core content and supplemental support. When a district takes the time to organize to match the criteria that they have it will prove to mirror content, not delivery of the material. This platform is so customizable that you can have a blended school that is effective quickly. The supplements of UpSmart and MyPath are unbelieveable.
I review online platforms as part of my job and by all means this is hands down the best platform possible for a district to use as its primary resource for the district.
The comment that the girl was getting all As and Bs at another cyber and then moved to this and is struggling doesn't surprise me. The rigor and expectation that students learn and can't skim the classes is what makes Edgenuity above all of the others.

All Edgenuity has done for me is make me want to kill myself. I never had any motivation to do my work properly, and it barely taught me anything.

This website is just unimaginably bad, for three reasons specifically. First the horribly awful format, kids are forced to so much unhelpful work that its just useless, Quizzes and Test every single day, countless projects that are don't make sense, and Teachers that don't teach well. Second, oh my God the bugs and stupid features. I cannot tell you how many times I have worked with my kids and the software just either stops responding or just restarts the entire lesson deleting all work. Also, if you have an assignment that takes more than one day to complete it will lower your grade significantly before it is even due making your grade go down for literally no reason. Third, it is boring as all hell. Picture a 13-14 year old teen at home by themselves and you give them countless hours of work that is boring, hard to understand, and just plain annoying. Do you really think the kid will focus at all and try to stay ahead?! Nobody wants to do useless, boring work, so at least make an attempt to be interesting! Lastly I would NOT recommend this site to anyone, it doesn't understand what school even is, kids wont remember the information you tell them if you just give them a bunch of worksheets and test and call it a day! There is literally nothing good I can think of about this site, it should be taken down and schools should not use it. If you need something to teach your kids, use khan academy. I found khan academy when I was in Collage and it helped me a TON. It is easy to use, understandable, FREE, and has classes and easy lessons to follow and learn from. TLDR Edgenuity = Awful. Khan academy = Great!

This being the only option right now for my child in my school district outside of traditional school, I'm very disappointed. The Edgenuity program has so many issues that are not being addressed such as the way the courses are formatted, the ability to communicate with teachers, and the ridiculous amount of "busy work " put in place to camouflage the fact the teachers are not there to promote success of their students.
On top of all of this, my child doesn't have the necessary course materials to complete assignments. For example, an assignment will be to read a certain passage and to take e notes but there's no access to the passage itself. Also, if my child has any questions for tbe teacher there isn't a email available to do so. How are you suppose to communicate with your teachers if you don't have an email address? The worst of itallis the"customer service". Today I waited over an hour three separate times only for the call to be disconnected. This whole experience with this platform has been a nightmare. I wish I could rate this review zero stars.
