Pearson currently serves over 100,000 K-12 students in more than 40 virtual public schools in 29 US states through Connections Academy, which for more than 20 years has delivered a unique way for students to go to public school, using technology for flexibility and a tailored approach to learning. Teachers specially trained in online instruction are the foundation of the Connections Academy experience, while a parent or other adult serves as a Learning Coach and monitors student progress. Students receive individual attention in a safe learning environment at home or any location where they learn best, as well as opportunities to socialize with their peers and teachers both virtually and in-person.

Connections Academy parents are consistently pleased with their students’ academic performance and overall experience, as reinforced by the 2023 Parent Satisfaction Survey.
