My ONLINE High School Experience | CONNECTIONS ACADEMY

[@NubianP6]

My kids are starting Georgia Connections Academy today, and this video has been SO incredibly informative! I know that you’ve graduated by now, but I just wanted to let you know that you are beautiful, intelligent, and charismatic, and unfortunately, as a result of that, you will often run into people who are intimidated by you. Being bullied is hard, I know from experience, but just continue to surround yourself with positive, like-minded people, and your best revenge will be your successes! Good luck in all of your endeavors, and thanks for the video! 💜

That’s so sad that you were bullied and clearly those people who bullied you are clearly jealous so instead of being nice they attacked you which is a shame. I’m glad that you left your school and did online school instead for your mental health. Your lashes and makeup look super cute! 💕

You are beautiful! Thanks for sharing your experience and I’m so sorry you had to go through that. Unhappy people always want to project their misery on others. I’ve been looking at different online virtual schools to put my young daughter in. These brick and mortal schools are vicious.

[@ThatGirlAsia]

Thank you so much and yesss online school was the best option for me so I highly recommend. It gave me the opportunity to get ahead, go at my own pace, & still have time for other passions, interests, and forms of creative expression throughout the day. I loved my online teachers and the structure of the lessons, there were also opportunities to meet in person and have field trips too.

[@LiliDadajuju]

🥑 thank you for the info girl. You are beautiful! I have a 6th, 2nd & 1st grader. Will definitely consider the Agendas for daily schedules and outside activities for kids to do. I am inspired by your persistence. God bless you sis.

[@armandae444]

Avocados☺. Thank you for your insight about Connections Academy. I am considering enrolling my child for 10th grade and there has been a multitude of mixed reviews, but mostly positive. I hope and trust you are thriving now since finishing high school. You are a beautiful young lady and seem to be a lot of fun. May God bless you.

[@ThatGirlAsia]

Awww I appreciate you, Thanks for watching! ❤️ I hope to see you again soon :)

[@jessicamorales6112]

I'm sorry u had to go through that :( its heartbreaking because I was about to go the Cristo Rey...yeah I live in Georgia so I know but I'm kinda happy I didn't go anyways I'm so happy I'm going to start Georgia Connection Academy. Anyways hope it works out for you! ✨ I attend Tri cities high school and its horrible for me ...people are just fake for no reason😭

[@ThatGirlAsia]

Thank you 🙏🏾 and I’m happy you aren’t going there the people are fake and they’ve made a lot of unnecessary rules as time has gone on. But I even tell my mom when I have kids I’m going to have them do online schooling because my friends that have been in GACA for 3-4 years in HS have really high gpa’s like 4.0+ because the work is easier & teachers are really helpful. I’m sorry you’re not having a good experience at Tri cities tho 😭

[@girlbossm8952]

U can go from private school to connections academy? I was looking and it said that you had to have prior public schooling 🤦🏾‍♀️. I’m just trying to find an online school lol 😂

[@tanjenikaw5380]

When you go to a live class, does the teacher teach the whole lesson that’s on the agenda for that day so you can mark that lesson complete once the class is over?

[@OH-vh6vi]

Wait, did they transfer all your AP classes easily or was AP computer science the only class you had?

[@sppll9841]

avocados. Love this video. My son is, hopefully, starting GA Connections Academy soon.

[@bealoved6550]

Avocado🙋🏽‍♀️Good job Young Queen of getting my daughter motivated for fall! She has the strongest social anxiety I’ve ever witnessed, just like you she is a very pretty girl, she dresses well, has interests but does not do well in a social setting! She has been homeschooled since her freshman year first year because her school did online because of Covid, she went in person for two months before the bullying started. Some boys decided that because she wouldn’t respond to him, he would “accidentally” hit her with a frisbee during a free day a gym😵‍💫😮‍💨😤😡🤬I talked to the dean about it, he says…”oh they were just being guys”, “it was a free day to play around, I’m sure he didn’t mean it”🙅🏽‍♀️That was it! I knew from then on she wouldn’t be protected! So, that happened Thursday, I kept her home, Friday, we found a great on line curriculum, and I withdrew her that Monday! Never to look back! Since then I have found that my daughter need some more structured, with live lessons from a real teacher, which I’m not, I’m a self proclaimed 🚁Mama, I don’t play about my baby! So hopefully this will work! Did you het a prom, or field trips during your time with Connections?

[@nasramohamed1489]

I have a question. So we have connections academy’s here in MAINE as well, and I am a junior this year, and hoping to join connections academy. Do parents or any guardians have to always be by my said/ do they need to teach me themselves with this program cuz my parents got jobs and are busy ( cuz ya know they got lives too and they provide for me) and I’m also a highschooler I can in fact do the lessons and assignments on my own as I am responsible and this is MY learning.

[@nanallpoez]

Do you need to get your own computer for online school or do they give you one ??

[@yesniaguadalupegarciamarti3594]

@@nanallpoez Both actually well to get a computer from connections academy it all depends on the income both your parents make, but if you or your parents can provide a computer/laptop then that's good too. Well for connections academy they give you one because depending of the income your parents make but for other online schools I'm not sure.

[@Kuntzjessie]

Yep but for my I chooses to go online during 9th grade after being bullied by the same girl from middle school then being suspended for writing how I felt with anger then put into a special school aka a second chance but everyone there but the teacher vape and I got back to the high school after a semester so I talk my family to drop me out of school and switch me online .

[@ThatGirlAsia]

Damnnn I’m sorry you had to go through all of that but I’m glad they finally switched you to online school. Kids can be mean fr but they hating on us because they ain’t us 😌

I also want someone who works with GACA to walk her through the enrollment process.Would that be possible?

Oh my god I literally graduated from Tecca holy shit

[@hayots_lernashkharh]

im thinking of leaving my private school after 3 yrs of being a student. the teaching quality is horrible (and trust me im one of those kids who busts my ass off to get good grades and learn), im always bombarded w work and it stresses me out constantly, the other kids around me r just arrogant pieces of shit, and there r so many unnecessary rules. like we cant have beards. im an armenian bro im hairy, i can shave my beard one day and 2 days later its grown back significantly and i always get detention for it. i literally got 4 hours of detention for a fucking stubble (not even a full beard). im tired of this place its shit. ive also been trying so hard to meet the requirements to advance in classes (from standard to honors to ap), but my school has made it sooooo tough. im barely able to achieve at least an A- as a final grade in the classes i want to advance in, and i need an average of an A final grade for my said class, both semesters, in order to advance. i try so hard to be an excellent student but its just not working out. i believe if i can dictate the pace i learn and and progress ill have a better time reaching my academic goals.

[@ThatGirlAsia]

Your school sounds wack fr I highly recommend switching to online school. I had a similar experience at my private school, the workload was crazy, the students were terrible, the school day started at 7:30 AM & didn’t end until 4 PM & it was hard to maintain good grades but I’d still have mostly A’s & b’s. Once I made the switch, I’d finish a week’s worth of schoolwork in 1 day so I had the rest of the week to myself. I had all A’s, my teachers we’re nice and very hands on so I didn’t feel like I was teaching myself the whole time. I highly recommend. I was able to leave hs with a 3.63 GPA bc of connections academy.
