Online homeschooling is on the rise with options to take virtual classes anywhere in the state. Karla Curtis home schools her two children and her nephew. She says it’s the best option for her and her kids. But there’s some subjects that Curtis looks for some extra help with. She says this year she’s using online classes to supplement her teaching and make things fun for her kids. “Especially with the Spanish and some of the history, they’re really enjoying the online teachers as well,” said Curtis. Those are exactly the kind of classes the Louisiana Connections Academy offers. Lead principal Glenda Jones says the academy offers classes for students K through 12 taught virtually across the whole state. “We cover the entire state so we have students from every parish in the state from north to south to east to west,” said Jones.
