Virutal High School

While every family has its own reasons for choosing a full-time virtual school like IndianaConnections Academy, the majority has children who are simply not thriving, for whatever reason, in a traditional classroom setting.

Many find increased personalization and flexibility of online schools enable their students to succeed academically, since they can work from home at a pace that is more in line with their learning style, and at a level that suits their educational needs.

But while many Indiana families are exploring full-time virtual schools as an option, it’s important to remember that this form of public education isn’t a good fit for every student, or every family.

Interaction between teachers and students at INCA is frequent.   Accountability is central to the school’s mission and students must meet the same levels of accountability and complete the same state standardized tests as traditional public schools.  INCA serves a wide range of Indiana students, including those who are significantly ahead or behind in the classroom; students who would benefit from more individualized instruction; or those who require a flexible school schedule.
