Worth It, But Not Without Problems

Overall, we've had a wonderful experience with IQAcademy. My children are less stressed and have provably better mental health and grades since we moved them online.
If it wasn't for repeated issues with two key members of the education team consistent refusal to follow and/or support special education plans like IEPs, I'd have given 5 stars.

I love working with the teachers from IQ Academy. They are very kind and quick to respond when we need help. The lessons are excellent quality. The K12 platform is always improving and there is a chat option to speak with technical support right away if we have any issues. This is our second year at IQ and things are going so well that we plan on staying and enrolling our second child in the fall.

I like the teacher she’s absolutely wonderful, the curriculum thru k 12 is to much for righting long drawn out essays for 3rd grade, also you need to do more with the USA and the states, such as get with knowing the flag of the USA 🇺🇸 I have her signed up but I am looking into other schools that focus more on learning about the USA 🇺🇸, a lot of to long of drawn out writing reports every day. Sometimes don’t get done until 5:00pm, our start day is 8:00am.
The social end of online is awful, we live 3 hours away and can’t make a lot of the field trips especially in the winter. Also there should be a year book for kids

It is not flexible at all(rigid class scheduling)... If you need flexibility with scheduling and with doing schoolwork at unconventional hours . Do Not go to IQMN. I suggest giving connections academy a shot. Our family was with them for 4 years and it was great. Considering moving us back to that program.
