Parent Testimonials

Connections Academy Parents Give the Program High Ratings

We recognize how important it is to get family feedback on the program and to help identify what we’re doing well and how we can improve. As a Connections Academy^®-supported school, we’re committed to this process!

Each year, Connections Academy hires an independent firm to conduct an anonymous survey. Parents evaluate the school on a number of criteria, including student progress, teacher support, quality of curriculum, and use of technology to improve the learning experience. This year, once again, parents who completed the review gave us high marks for helping students succeed academically and emotionally.

Student Satisfaction

Over 90% of parents agree that their children are satisfied with our program and are pleased with their child’s academic growth.

My child absolutely loves Connections Academy.  He is able to work at his own pace and take time to re-think his answers before submitting them, which adds to better grades, which ultimately leads to a happier child. He has finally come out of his shell!

What I like best is how enthused my son is about learning. He has shown so much self-motivation and enthusiasm for the program.

We're really enjoying Connections Academy!  My daughter, Bethany, was behind on her reading skills. . Connections gave her second grade curriculum to catch up with. She completed all of her second grade curriculum in November and now is working toward completing third grade by the end of this year!  Thanks for giving her this opportunity to catch up with her peers!

Teachers Provide a High Level of Support

Over 92% of our parents praise the helpfulness of their child’s teacher. Our parents appreciate the dedication and professionalism of our teaching staff and report a high level of satisfaction with their work.

The support of the teachers has been outstanding. They are willing to try new things and help my child grow and learn at her own pace. They also value and respect my input as a parent.

The Curriculum is High Quality

Over 94% of our parents agree that our curriculum is high quality. ACA strives to bring together the best educational resources in order to create challenging and inspiring lessons for students.

The material is challenging even for my bright kids. Critical thinking is an excellent piece of curriculum. Being self paced is great.

I like how fluid it is. I can change the lesson configurations to keep up with my child’s interests and difficulties.

The curriculum is well organized and the lessons are easy to follow.

I love the fact that the books are all provided for you along with the curriculum. The Skills Tutor and Brain Pop® are wonderful. I'm enjoying the easy use of the computer for scheduling and attendance.

Everything is geared to my child. Her strengths and weaknesses are all taken into consideration as the curriculum is set for her. She is in charge of her learning.

Technology Enhances the Learning Experience

Nearly 89% of families agree that Connections Academy technology tools helped to improve their children’s learning experiences. Many parent reviews praise our proprietary learning management system because it helps keep them organized with grade tracking, scheduling, and communication.

"The online schedule of daily classes with the teaching manual back-up is very helpful. I couldn't do this effectively without these tools. Additionally, the online grading and completion charts are a must.
