What Parents Should Know

With a student-teacher ratio of 9.5:1, Isaac Online Prep Academy offers a notably low ratio compared to the national average. This typically means smaller class sizes and more opportunities for one-on-one interaction between students and teachers.

Isaac Online Prep Academy is a virtual school, meaning instruction is delivered primarily online.

Parents should consider whether their child thrives with independent, technology-based learning and ask about the school's approach to student engagement and support.
