New World-Wide online school program is now enrolling
Roy, NM. – re developed to assist any student world-wide who
needs an alternative or supplement to traditional education, now
enrolls students wherever and whenever the need arises.
Using the Global Student Network’s popular Virtual Curriculum,
Mesa Online Academy offers individual or full year courses for
students in grades 2-12. Based on a program established to
connect non-traditional students with public school resources,
the Mesa Online Academy offers individualized, online education
to any student, in the U.S. or internationally.
Richard Hazen, Superintendent of Roy Municipal School District
says that the Mesa Online Academy’s faculty are all “Highly
Qualified Teacher’s” as required by the No Child Left Behind
Act. Combining the
talents and passion for education with Global Student Network’s
nationally aligned Virtual Curriculum was an obvious step to
providing the alternative education needs of the 21st century.
“Clearly there has been a mandate in America, and around the
world to provide alternatives to brick and mortar
schools.” Currently, we are accepting students from anywhere in
the world, mainly outside of New Mexico.
Mesa Online Academy is ideal for homeschool students, as well as
students who have struggled, for whatever reasons, in
traditional ‘brick and mortar’ school settings. It is an
excellent way to provide a quality education to children whose
parents prefer they stay at home.
Located in northern New Mexico, Mesa Online Academy is committed
to providing quality, virtual education for students in grades
2-12 who are looking for a less traditional educational
experience. “
Global Student Network, a provider of virtual curriculum in 46
states and 11 countries, supplies the online courses. Each of
the 80+ courses supports New Mexico State learning standards and
is delivered entirely over the internet. “We did a nationwide
search for the best Online Curriculum for Mesa Online Academy’s
students, and we are very fortunate to be working with the
value, service and quality leader for online courses.
Students enrolled at Mesa Online Academy complete all of their
coursework online while having the flexibility to customize
their school year with 24/7 year-round access.
“We believe that every student’s learning needs are
different and we know that the Mesa Online Academy will be a
positive addition to our ability to individualize curriculum to
meet the needs of students,” Hazen said.
Benefits for students and teachers involved in the Mesa Online
Academy are also significant. Time is flexible and student can
work from anywhere that has an Internet connection
“The program will likely attract students that have, for
whatever reason, felt disenfranchised from the school system,”
Hazen said. “We are excited to be able to meet the needs of
students and their families,”
