Review for ISchool, Carson City, NV, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

My son is a competitive freeride skier and we found his competition schedule and desired full-time winter training schedule impossible in a traditional school setting. We started exploring other options and after a conversation with Kathryn Kelly I knew we had found an ideal fit! The iSchool has been nothing short of life changing for my son! He went in to the program as a child who had never had any significant academic interests. Kathryn took the time to get to know him, discover his interests and formulated a curriculum. He was able to pursue his interests in videography, start studying German, study Environmental Science .. all subjects that weren't available at his prior school. He actually started enjoying Math thanks to Ms Housken and her dog. Just the right combination of one-on-one time and independence has allowed him thrive!! The flexibility with the schedule has allowed him to take classes during the summer, keep the ski season very light academically, and in fact will graduate an entire semester early!! With Kathryn's guidance SAT testing and college applications went well and he was accepted into his top choice for college where he plans to study film production. I can't thank Kathryn and the iSchool enough!
