It's Not Too Early To Explore Different Options for Next Year's School Year
Looking for a school environment with fewer distractions, greater flexibility, more one-on-one time, and a personalized learning pace?
As the end of the school year approaches, do you feel your child may need a change in the fall? Now's the time to explore different options. Enrollment for the 2017-18 school year is underway and free in-person Information Sessions are being offered around the state, as well as real-time, virtual Information Sessions and Parent Panels.
MTS Minnesota Connections Academy, a tuition-free, K-12 virtual public school will host a free Information Session in Lakeville Wednesday, March 29, from 6:30-8pm, at the Holiday Inn Hotel and Suites Minneapolis-Lakeville, 20800 Kenrick Ave., for families interested in learning about its online program and individualized approach to education. Families will meet with faculty, hear how the program works, explore its curriculum, hear about field trips and community activities, and learn how to enroll. Other topics include: How teachers interact with students in a virtual environment, personalized learning opportunities, college preparation, the role of the parent or other Learning Coach, and the use of technology.
Minnesota Connections Academy is designed to meet the needs of students and their families who are looking for a unique public school option—those who need a flexible schedule, learn at a different pace from their peers, need more individualized attention or live in isolated rural settings. Homebound and previously home-schooled students can also thrive in the program. For a complete schedule of events and to RSVP, visit www.ConnectionsAcademy.com/MTSMCAevents.
