Internet Academy
The Internet Academy (IA or iAcademy) is a public virtual school approved by the Northwest Accreditation Commission for grades K–12. The Internet Academy belongs to Federal Way Public Schools. As the first public online school in Washington State, Internet Academy specializes in fostering long-lasting relationships with students while offering challenging coursework.
For students in grades K–12, Internet Academy provides engaging and distinctive core, elective, and CTE courses. The Federal Way School District's academic schedule is adhered to by the school. Internet Academy is pleased to be the official academic partner of the Seattle Sounders Academy, and many of the high school courses are NCAA-recognized.
The Canvas learning management system utilized by elite schools and institutions is what Internet Academy uses. Time management, communication, self-motivation, and technological skills are among the things that iA learners acquire to help them succeed in life after high school. Teachers with Washington State Certification oversee resources and design their own lessons, which are uploaded to the school website for students to finish. In addition, educators host real-time video conferences in which students and instructors work together on an interactive whiteboard while speaking through a webcam or headphones.
Internet Academy delivers instructional materials via the Internet. There is no cost to enroll in the school for any kid who lives in Washington. Out-of-state students can also enroll for a charge per course.
Parents of students registered in Internet Academy are given access to a Mentor/Insight Account. The parent can access data from these accounts, which are distinct from the students', including the number of completed assignments, the length of time the student has been logged in, and the teacher's comments on the assignments and tests.
