“I was nervous about switching to online school in the beginning, but once I tried it, I realized it was definitely for me! There is a lot of support at Heron. I can contact my teachers really easily, and they always answer! They are always helpful if I need a little extra time or help on an assignment. The teachers are there for you and are devoted to pushing you toward your career.”

“We moved from Austin, Texas, and wanted to put our daughter in a school that would be academically challenging. She has been in both public and private schools. Our experience at Heron has been wonderful. It could not be any better.”
