Student Spotlight: Ava Grove
Ava absolutely loves horses and rodeo. “It’s what my life revolves around,” says the middle school student. Falcon View Connections Academy’s flexible approach to education enables her to balance her school requirements with her rodeo competition schedule.
Reports Ava, “The last online school I attended had a very overwhelming amount of work. I was constantly behind and couldn’t do what I love — rodeo. Falcon View Connections Academy fits my schedule, and the teachers are very nice. This keeps me on track and enables me to ride my horses and get ready for rodeos without being stressed. I can get my work done ahead of time or on time.”
Friends who also participate in rodeo told Ava about our school and said the flexibility fit their lifestyle, so she thought she would give it a try. She loved Falcon View Connections Academy from the start, and especially enjoys her English class because she has always loved reading and writing.
“The flexibility of [this school] enables me to do my schoolwork if I’m gone for a couple of days , it’s not overwhelming.”
