Blyth Academy Online is a well-organized online school that provides curriculum-based learning with multiple strategies for success in high school. Support from the school is excellent and communication with teachers has been great also (lots of constructive feedback). This is our second year with BAO and we continue to be glad we made this choice for our child.

My son has taken several high-school credits through Blyth Academy Online. The courses were well-designed and clearly presented, with some quite creative assignments, and well-spaced assessments. The Grade 11 economics course was rigorous and challenging with assignments that were a good preparation for researching and writing papers at the post-secondary level. Any technical issues were addressed promptly and the instructors were very quick to answer questions and respond to submitted work. Blyth's online format and execution is far better than an alternative online school which we had previously tried. My son is "returning" to Blyth Online for a final course this academic year and is very grateful it is allowing him to pursue a subject his "day" school does not offer.

Blyth online learning allows students flexibility to finish courses while managing other commitments. Students can work at their own pace. Teachers are available to answer questions and help with course content. Course content, assignments, tests and exams were challenging, sometimes even harder than in class expectations.

Our daughter has taken Blyth courses ever since her grade 9. At first that was nessessary in order to have flexibility with her athletic goals, later it was clear, Blyth is well prepared educational institution that can offer not only flexibility but also in depth quality education. Teachers feedbacks were quick and knowledgeable. Tech support was great, quick and patient. Admin is quick to respond to any questions and concerns. We were very happy with the choice to have Blyth course during Covid school locked down, because unlike regular school, Blyth had planned steady work load, giving a student reassurance and confidence that educational institution knows what and how they do. There were no disturbances in learning, no teachers complaints about not knowing how to upload the lectures and such. Exam went smoothly, technically improved compared to prior years. Thank you Blyth.

Blyth Online has given my son the freedom to work at home or anywhere he is with the confidence that he is getting the best education, great support from his teachers and the student community he interacts with online. The decision to join Blyth Online was simply the best decision we have made.

We need to deal with final exam in a more efficient manner. It takes a long time to book an appointment and our first experience with it is not great. Took an hour to setup the exam. Also, the way the student is treated by the other party is on the border of being a suspect in every movement. Maybe there is a huge cultural difference between us and the provider of the exam monitoring.

Overall, as a family we are thrilled that Saige is attending Blyth Academy Online. It gives us all more freedom. She appears to be learning more because she's able to focus on the learning material and not the social aspects of the classroom. My one concern would be that in more than one class, she hasn't been able to connect with her professors in a timely manner and on occasion, they aren't being quite as polite or helpful as we'd hope for, in their responses. Granted, we are also still training Saige how to better communicate in writing, staying polite & professional...she's still learning.

Schooling looks a lot different than it did September 2019. Blyth teachers made the transition easy and kept students engaged.

On-line course development was very well done. Materials were comprehensive and teachers were both supportive and flexible in dealing with the students (and in our case, his parent). Overall, as an educator myself, I was impressed with the quality of the materials and instruction.

Blyth online offers a great variety of course alternatives in a flexible timing environment. The course demands are extensive, and by my observation may exceed the typical in class demands in terms of the number of assignments and proof of learning and engagement, which as a parent is positive comfort that the educational value is being delivered, but can impede the ability of the student to keep pace with a normal course duration.

Like most educational experiences, online academics comes down to the quality and communication skills of the teacher and to that point the teachers our son has had to date have been great.

The admin and guidance councillor was very good. But the teacher were difficult regarding redoing work, not answering in depth questions. Giving sudden deadlines. Besides one teacher I very respect their help with guidance and transcripts and easy access to complete courses.

Very good platform. I really wish there was more parental communication, especially in senior years. I appreciate the need to foster independence, but my son missed some crucial paperwork that I wished I would have known about in time to do something about it.

Overall we are happy with the level of education that our child is receiving at Blyth Academy. Once our child was in the routine and understood what was expected of her things went quite smoothly. It was a bit of a bumpy start but she is enjoying it much more now that things are clear to her. Some of the teachers have been very encouraging and helpful.
