School Leaders
Connections Academy has a clear record of academic success that stands out among online learning providers.
Now your students can benefit from top-quality Connections Academy online curriculum and instructional services—at a price your school can afford.
Now is the time to put online courses to work for your students.
You’ve read the headlines:
- More than a million K–12 students are now engaged in online courses, a 47% increase since 2006.
- 70% or more of districts say they need online learning courses to be able to meet the needs of specific groups of students and to offer Advanced Placement or college-level courses.1
Meanwhile, the U.S. Department of Education’s research shows that online courses are as effective as face-to-face instruction and that blending online into your traditional school program is the most powerful combination of all.2
So what are you waiting for? Connections Academy is here to help you integrate online courses into your school or district in the way that makes the most sense for you and your students.
Buying individual online courses makes sense if you have a variety of different needs to meet, specific curriculum gaps to fill, or one particular time per school day you want to devote to online learning. Go to buy online courses for step-by-step help in choosing courses and getting started.
If you have a specific group of students you’d like to serve with in-depth online learning, or if you expect most online learning in your district to happen at home, you may want to start a virtual school. We’ll make it easy and affordable. Check out our curriculum guide to learn more about our online courses, and don’t miss the resource center to help you make sense of online courses and virtual learning opportunities.
Whether augmenting your current program with online courses or starting a virtual school is the right approach for your students, Connections Academy will guide you into the future of education.
