Empowering K-12 Students
with Proven Virtual Education
Connections Academy will afford Rhode Island families access to a public virtual charter school option with the following:
High-Quality Curriculum
Our curriculum and instruction will meet state and national standards while integrating the best materials, texts, and resources available.
Exceptional Teachers
Experts in online learning and online learning protocols. Teachers will be state-certified and will be trained to excel in online teaching.
Individualized Learning
Each student has unique abilities and performs better when receiving individualized attention in a nurturing learning environment, and this will be a core concept at Connections Academy.
Parent-Supported Learning
A parent, guardian, or other responsible adult will serve as their student’s Learning Coach, choosing to be closely involved in their child’s daily education and actively supporting and encouraging their child.
Career Coaching
Career coaches will support school leaders and counselors to help students navigate all of the aspects of their College and Career preparation journey, including helping with pathway selection, identifying experiential opportunities most beneficial to students based on their interests and aptitude, and compiling portfolios (“Digital Backpacks”) that will set the students up for immediate success following graduation, whether enrolling in college, a trade school, or entering the job market.
Career Pathways
Students will have access to various pathways that prepare them to earn industry certifications across several Career Clusters. Based on what we know to be high-demand jobs in growing industries, students will initially have access to courses leading to certification in the IT, Business, and Health clusters. Additional pathways will be added as industry data and student interest dictate.
