We love this school and have so much fun. My daughter who is in K this year surpassed all the standards. We even got to pick out own curriculum. The only drawback is that they push to make sure we home-study families abide by CA. standards so much that it cramps my lesson plans. Out teacher was easy to relate to and to the point .All other staff we have dealt with have made things very easy and organized.

Visions has been fantastic for our family! We are a homeschool family turned charter and are not looking back. The support you get from the staff is wonderful, I've never been given the feeling that they are there just for the paycheck. All of the staff takes pride in their school, and that means a lot to the students and their families. In addition you are able to work your child on THIER level, not the one that someone set for them. I have one child who is GATE and works about 3 grade levels, another that is 'behind' due to some illnesses and they are both still loving their school. They don't feel the peer pressure that other schools have and they really are able to just enjoy learning. If you are even just thinking about a charter or HS you should check our Visions, you'll be glad you did!!!

Visions is a great school. My boy's have been attending Visions since last school year and I have seen an improvement in their grades and GPA. Their teacher is awesome. She works with them one on one with their school work. I highly recommend Visions if you are looking for a good Charter school.

The charter school experience has been wonderful for my daughter. She has been attending since Kindergarten, and it is a great opportunity for us to explore all that homeschooling has to offer while still taking advantage of some of the standardized curriculum used by her home school district.

My granddaughter went from 8th grade at Barrett Elementary- which from personal experience kept the bad element in and pushed the good element out to Visions for education. Visions supplied her with everything she needed to succeed in the academic world. Her teacher works with her on a one on one. Parent participation is a must. Don't get me wrong, she has plenty of studies to keep her oocupied. The only thing she is missing is the social life of a regular High School.scale of If your student is lucky Miss Ellis will be their teacher. Miss Ellis is very dedicated to teaching and also lifting self esteem which I feel is the main cause of failure in schools today.

I was a student at this school, and my teacher was very absent minded! Lost my work and I often had to do it over! I hated visions. I will never reccomend it for anyone!

Good idea for homeschoolers, able to get curriculum and extracurriclular activities paid for up to $1500.00 per year.

Visions In Education has been wonderful for my daughter. We pulled her out of her high school after problems with the teachers. She is getting a much better education now. Her grades are higher and she is so much happier! She is starting college classes this fall.

Visions Independent Study High School is great! My son will graduate from Visions this year. This is our first year with Visions and I' wish that I had done this sooner. Our son is more focused and works great with no distraction unlike traditional school settings. Visions has given him a computer to work with and contact his teacher whenever he needs to. This school is awesome and I'm so glad we're involved in it. I'm constantly bragging about Visions and they are always available to talk with you or they will call you back in ample enough time to work out your problem. The counselors are much better than the traditional high school we dealt with for three years. Thanks Visions, keep up the good work!
