The Online School Experience at Utah Connections Academy
Middle school students are fun, energetic young people who love to learn. Their creativity and spontaneity are wonderful and inspire me to look forward to teaching them every day.
Utah Connections Academy prepares students to have a bright and successful future in many ways. Students are given the resources to explore topics on their own, develop time management skills, and hold themselves accountable for their education and overall success. These are valuable life-long skills that will serve our students well.
"Utah Connections Academy does a great job of getting students ready for life beyond school."
