Why I Became a Teacher

I wanted to become a teacher so that I could play a positive role in building students’ foundation for learning. I really enjoy helping my students love school.    

The Online School Experience at Kansas Connections Academy

Working at this school offers many opportunities to connect with students in both whole group and small group settings. I especially enjoy the opportunity to partner with Learning Coaches to help our students succeed.

This school community is special—students here are able to learn in a safe and comfortable environment as their caretakers and teachers work together with them as a team.  

I especially enjoy the opportunity to partner with Learning Coaches to help our students succeed.
