Connections Academy is an online school provider for grades K-12. It is based in Baltimore and is a division of Connections Education, LLC, which is owned by the UK-based, publicly traded Pearson PLC. It supports public online schools for grades K-12 across the United States. A private online school, International Connections Academy, is also available to students who live abroad. Online schools are an alternative to traditional public schools. Similar to charter schools, they are subsidized by the state. 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 first began providing online school services to two schools 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. In this same year, on September 15, 2011, Pearson, an international learning company, acquired Connections Education for in excess of $400 million.

Connections Education consists of two education-focused divisions including Connections Academy and Pearson Online & Blended Learning that serves educational institutions and other organizations with online learning solutions.
