Welcome to Wisconsin Connections Academy!

Wisconsin Connections Academy (WCA) is Wisconsin's premier virtual school for students in grades 4K-12. It operates through a charter with the Appleton Area School District and a partnership with Connections Education, LLC.

As a leader in virtual education, WCA is a public school that creates dynamic opportunities for learners to succeed in. The staff recognizes that the traditional classroom does not meet the needs of all students and strives to embrace innovative ideas and technologies to ensure learner success in a changing world.

Learning online doesn’t mean learning alone. Even in a virtual setting, students meet regularly in online classroom sessions and have opportunities to share ideas, compare experiences, and have fun learning together. There are even chances to attend in-person gatherings, activities, and field trips.

The flexibility of the school allows plenty of opportunities for students to pursue and explore other extracurricular activities outside of Wisconsin Connections Academy or through Connections Academy’s clubs!
