Connections Academy
Connections Academy is a Baltimore-based division of Connections Education, LLC, which is owned by the UK-based, publicly traded Pearson PLC. The company offers online school for students in grades K-12. The online courses are an alternative to traditional public schools. Similar to charter schools, they are subsidized by the state. They also offer tuition-based online private schools internationally. Although they contract with many non-profit schools, they are not a non-profit organization.
==History==
In the Spring of 2001, Sylvan Ventures started a separate business unit to create a virtual school program. The company began operations of its first schools in two states in the Fall of 2002. In September 2004, Connections Academy was sold to an investor group led by Apollo Management, L.P. The company now operates public schools under management contracts from charter schools or school districts.
A new corporate entity called Connections Education was established in early 2011. Connections Education consists of two education-focused divisions including Connections Learning that serves educational institutions and other organizations with online learning solutions.
On September 15, 2011, Pearson, an international learning company, acquired Connections Education for in excess of $400 million〔(), Connections Academy, retrieved 2012-08-01〕
