I’ve really enjoyed independent study at Visions! All of my teachers have been awesome, I’ve felt very supported in my academics, and I feel like it was all around an excellent choice to attend as my high school. I love how independent it is; throughout high school, I’ve been able to work according to my own schedule, which I feel has really benefitted my learning experience. The only real downside I’ve noticed is that students need to put in effort to interact with their peers. Visions does a great job organizing in-person events, but because it’s independent study, students have to put in the effort to show up. It’s not like a normal high school where you’re around other students all day. This hasn’t been a problem for me personally–if anything, I feel not constantly being around other students has been very beneficial–but that might be more of an issue for more extroverted students. Otherwise, though, it’s been an amazing experience, and I’ve really enjoyed attending my school!
