I previously attended traditional public schools and have been homeschooled by my parents. They determined I needed an academic setting that offers a flexible schedule since I am a Junior Olympic sprinter, competing in events all over North America. In fact, I recently won the 100-meter, 200-meter and 400-meter events at the Canadian Championships. Since the age of two, I’ve loved to run and as time passed, my parents realized that I had a gift.

“The flexibility of the schedule that Great River Connections offered was a major factor in our decision,” Kevin said. “At the same time, the staff and the teachers have made the transition very easy. We appreciate everything they’ve done for Jaiya.”
