The Online School Experience at Utah Connections Academy
Utah Connections Academy believes communication with parents is very important. When asked how she connects with her son’s teachers, Tessie said, “I just email and always know they will respond.
“[Conner and I] like doing art together and I appreciate being able to help him with his writing. I think he missed a lot of the explicit instruction when he was in a traditional public school and was a bit behind.”
“As a former professor who taught online, I think it’s helpful for [my son] to be comfortable with online learning. This school provides that opportunity. It has also helped him learn to self-manage, which is a valuable life skill.”
