For many families, choosing an online school can feel like a big step—especially during uncertain times. For Stephanie, enrolling her son at Texas Connections Academy became a turning point that changed her child’s educational journey for the better.
“The level of support we have here is outstanding. Every single teacher I have met in five years has gone out of their way to support my child.”

Growth, Confidence, and Academic Success
Stephanie’s son joined Texas Connections Academy in 3rd grade, shortly after the COVID lockdowns. At the time, he was struggling and, in her words, “falling through the cracks because of what was happening in the world.”
Since then, the transformation has been remarkable.
“I saw him grow into a thriving and successful student,” Stephanie shares. “He has made straight A’s here for the past five years, and his confidence has truly blossomed.”

Connection Beyond the Screen
Like many parents, Stephanie initially worried about her son being home full-time. Those concerns quickly eased as he became involved in clubs, organizations, and school events.
“He has really loved being in clubs and organizations where he is able to interact with his peers,” she says.
From local field trips to school events, her son has formed meaningful friendships—some that even extend beyond school hours into shared interests like gaming.
“Without Texas Connections Academy, he wouldn’t have met some of those kids he has so much in common with.”
Support That Makes the Difference
When asked what advice she would give to parents considering online learning, Stephanie points to the unwavering support at Texas Connections Academy.
“The level of support we have here is outstanding. Every single teacher I have met in five years has gone out of their way to support my child.”
Her message to families who may feel unsure is simple and encouraging:
“It is definitely worth giving Texas Connections Academy a chance to see if it is a good fit for your family.”
