This school has really gone out of its way to help my kids learn and grow. As a parent I can choose what subjects to work on. The field trips are some much fun. WE can spend time together as a family.
Capo Connections Academy is a great school. They really work with you to help make your child's education better. They are striving to make more meetups and fieldtrips as well as create more opportunities to connect with fellow parents and students. I am so glad to have found this option for my children and would recommend it to anyone who wants to take an active role in their child's education.
Connections is great. The math is better than what they were doing before they entered connections although not as I would have wanted it to be. Regrettably, we had to move our two kids back to a regular school because of our schedules.
There is a disconnect from the online content, prepared elsewhere, and Capistrano's implementation. Staff turnover is high and teachers unfamiliar with program are easily frustrated. Communication, primarily by e-mail, can be misinterpreted and lead to misunderstandings. Livelessons in virtual rooms that require students to type messages and hear teacher response are uncontrolled sessions where students type over each other and little learning is accomplished. Plenty of 'field trips , with teachers out of office so often it negatively impacts teaching. Have waited for grading 2+ months and homeroom teacher contact has been twice in 7 months. Virtual school is a rockn' alternative to brick and mortar schools, but it's a home schooling program. CAPO provides minimum support for students and parents need to be involved daily for success. I'm 100% behind virtual schooling, but would never recommend CAPO as the source.
