The Mesa Distance Learning Program has clearly established itself as an effective and emerging leader in statewide demand for online education. Its faculty is held to high standards: highly qualified in each content area, tracking system to assure prompt responses to students questions, provide feedback on assignments, and a requirement to score a minimum of 60% on a proctored final exam for course credit. The director and content specialists are alert to changing trends in quality, online education.

Mesa distance Learning is a great educational opportunity. The class selection is appropriate and contains classes interesting to the teen student. Overall the content is challenging and yet affords success. The teachers encourage the students, give feedback and answer questions in a clear, instructive manner. Thank you for maintaining a program that allows students options, is innovative, up-to-date and offers a good education.

My son is in MDLP. This type of education for young developing students should not be allowed. Think about it. Learning to communicate and how to develop teamwork are the most important assets a child takes with him/her into college. At MDLP this is non-existent. This school is ok for a child that is unable to otherwise attend classes. It is unacceptable for all other students. Learn to communicate! Learn teamwork! Learn to make friends and get along with other students in a normal classroom environment! Don't fall into this trap. Your child will miss out on the most important aspects of his/her life. Thx.

I love MDLP! The teachers are great and the courses are about the same as a regular school. I work on my courses after work, so it's great for me. Thanks, MDLP.

This school is amazing!! I can't believe I was lucky enough to find it and that it exists!! Its not for everyone, you need to be self motivated...but Ihave loved having more say in what I learn and more choices and options with my classes!! I would recommend it to anyone looking for a change!

I love this school!!! If you are independent and want to try something unique this is it!! The advisors are great!! The classes are awesome!!! And you can also go to a regular school part time, and do this part time if you like. I can't understand why anyone would give this school a bad review....unless they didn't do well because they didn't do the work!! I'm so glad I went to tis school! Distance Learning rocks!

Hi! I'm currently enrolled in Mesa Distance Learning Program, and I started this year (so i've done it for about 6 months so far now). My parent made me do a distance learning program because they thought I was too smart to go to school. I picked MDLP because I thought I could take classes at a high school and do this program at the same time. Well thats what someone told me anyway, but they were lying to get me in their program. The whole thing is two faced. One administrative person will tell you something, and then another one will tell you something different. The Teachers took forever getting my work back to me, and when they finally did, they didn't leave any comments on my essays. How am I supposed to learn if I don't know how I got something wrong? This school will just frustrate you.

My son has been with MDLP since early 2000. They have been very helpful in his furthering of his education. They are always eager to help in all circumstances. Thank you MDLP!
