Lone Star Online Academy at Roscoe, Lewisville | Fees, Rankings, Address, Admission, Vacancies, Reviews & More

I enrolled my daughter at lone star online academy at roscoe a month and a half ago. Shes 9 in the 4th grade. She has been a straight A student since she started school. well in the last 6 weeks she went from a Honor roll student to now having 3 F’s. Not just an F’s but her math grade was a 9, her S.S. was a 32, and her reading was at a 50. Almost all her math quiz grades are below a 20 and a sone are 0’s. she missed every question. i thought her teacher was going to teach her. So i contacted the teacherand she said that it was up to me to teach her. we just moved to Texas in August and planned to move around a bit an visit family until we found our place we like. So thats why i chose to enroll her in this school bc i work from my compuer and it would give us the freedom to travel ad not have to keep changing her schools. in october at her last school right before i transferred her, her grades were 93 and above in every subject! So finally i took the last few days off from work because i wasnt feeling well and wanted to go though every assignment an quiz shes done. I did. So i got upset with my daughter bc she was getting every singke math problem wrong almost. She told me she doesnt know how to do any of it. So automatically think shes not askingbl questions or not asking her teacher for help. And age said the teacher wasnt teaching this to her. so i went and watched every math class that was recorded. i went day for day to what he taught in class that day to what my daughters lesson was for that day. My daughter was telling the truth. She had no idea how to do 80 % percent of it bc the teacher never taught it in not one video I watched. The teacher would bot answer y questions. She was teaching addition word problem solving but her home work was dividing area models. It was that way everyday. Not one video since my daughter started has that teacher said one thing about how to divide area models. When i emailed the teacher she said it was uo to me to help with youtube videos are find my own source. Ive called k12 and they said call the school. the school only has a message line. Ive left message after message and not 1 reply. This was one of the worst mistakes i ever made. I feel horrible bc i thought it was my daughter and she got in trouble. but the teacher cuts the kids off doesn’t let them ask questions verbally. Tells kids to never talk just type and ignores children who verbally ask for help and will answer 1 or 2 questions from a couole kids then cuts everybodybwith questions off and ends the class . there is a raise your hand button to ask a question. That button might as well not be there. I watched myvdaughter leave her hand raised the while class and never even acknowledged! This could ruin my daughters love that she had for learning and school. My brother is Shane Stocks a superintendent for a school system in missouri, and my sister is 3rd grade teacher also. So i know quite a bit about the education system and how it works. And im pretty sure this is jus a school that someone or multiple people are using for a profit somehow. Who do i call in Texas to report what is going on?

My daughter just started 4 days ago and so far so good. She had been in public school since Pre-K, so I worried the new learning environment would be difficult for her to adjust to on a long term basis. However, she loves it because it a more relaxed way to learn. Her focus can now be solely on her lessons with no distractions, which was an issue before in a traditional classroom. If your child is a self starter, has good researching skills and was an honor roll student prior, chances are they will need little to no assistance daily from their learning coach. If your child struggles in a subject, the learning coach will be crucial. The classroom teacher goes over the lessons and issues the assignments, but as the learning coach you are their tutor. Although, the one-on-one attention should definitely help to get your child learn what they need to learn more effectively than in person classes can that’s for sure. My daughter also had a few questions for her teachers and received answers in a timely manner. I will update my review at the end of the school year as well.

Good luck trying to reach someone! I have been sending emails, lefts countless voicemails. My daughter sent emails and no one is replying! I reached out to the chat on the website and all they say (after a ton a questios) is you need to call the school and that’s it. You are left all alone with the problems you have with the grades/quizzes and no one helps! So stay away from this “school”. they don’t care about your kid’s education or or kids at all. My daughter had situations where the teacher just left, leaving the chat unattended (kids where saying profanities, and being mean to each other); a teachers ignored her questions on the chat but engaged with students talking about which manga series is the best. All the communication is about STAAR, they will text, email, call you if your kid misses the STAAR test; they will keep calling/texting/emailing you to reschedule and threaten you saying the kid won’t pass to the next grade and you won’t be able to re enroll.
Again, STAY AWAY FROM THIS SCHOOL!
