Arizona Connections Academy Information Session June 20, 2012

Arizona Connections Academy (ACA), a tuition-free, fully accredited virtual public school, is hosting a free information session from 6:30 p.m. to 8 p.m. on Wednesday, June 20 at the Coconino Community College Lone Tree Campus, 2800 S. Lone Tree Rd., in Flagstaff.

“This is a terrific opportunity for families to learn about our online program and individualized approach to education,” said Brian Rosta, ACA principal. “We follow the same curriculum as a traditional school, but students have much more flexibility in terms of when they attend live lessons and when they do class assignments. Students can work at their own pace, advancing quickly or taking extra time with teachers on subjects that are more challenging.”

The information session will cover several topics, including the school’s program and curriculum, the enrollment process, how teachers interact with students in a virtual environment, college preparation, social events, such as field trips and clubs, and other relevant topics. Because ACA is a virtual school, it is available to K-12 students who reside anywhere in Arizona. Tuition is free, and enrolled students receive a computer and books at no charge.
