Letter: An open letter to students, families
Students are heading back to school in Utah and that means it is time to start thinking about ensuring success for another school year. Last year Utah students found success in a variety of educational platforms from traditional public school, to public charter, online, homeschool and private school options.
Regardless of the type of school your student is attending, there are some simple tips you can use to promote learning in your home.
- Set up a quiet workspace for schoolwork and/or homework
- Make it fun for your kids and get them involved in decorating the workspace
- Create a daily schedule and come up with a few ideas to get your squiggles and wiggles out during learning time- jump rope, ride your bike, play with the dog!
- Attend school orientation and open house events
- Purchase necessary school materials
At the Career Academy of Utah, we are excited to partner with parents and students for the upcoming school year. Our online school provides a standards-aligned curriculum facilitated by highly qualified Utah-certified teachers. And with the school’s unique career-focused approach, students can pair a solid academic foundation with hands-on learning experiences in career exploration. We believe that when it comes to public education in Utah, families need options that will prepare them for personal and professional success.
Wishing all Utah students a successful 22-23 school year,
Dr. Bonita Teasley, Head of School of the Career Academy of Utah
