Leos
Elementary School Student
Leos is a first grader at our school. He loves to build with Legos, play the violin, and play soccer. According to his father, “the flexible schedule at Minnesota Connections Academy allows time for all of this and more. … Leos’s favorite subject is math. He loves when the Lego club has meetings online.”
Why Leos’s Family Chose Our School
Says Leos’s dad, “His older sister, Natasa, started at Minnesota Connections Academy in 2021–22 for fourth grade and had a great experience. Based on that, the decision to enroll Leos at Minnesota Connections Academy for kindergarten in 2022–23 was a very easy one to make.”
According to Leos, his favorite experience at our school is having the chance to meet other Minnesota Connections Academy students and parents on field trips.
The Online School Experience at Minnesota Connections Academy
“We’ve had a very open, friendly, and transparent relationship with all of the Minnesota Connections Academy teachers,” reports Leos’s dad. “It’s a great feeling to be able to reach out directly and have your question answered quickly and thoroughly.
“We love how Minnesota Connections Academy allows Leos to work at his own pace. For instance, he was able to move up one grade in math, which has given him exactly the right kind of academic challenge.”
I love Minnesota Connections Academy because it encourages achievement in all students.
