Ohio DL Schools

As I go through each site and explore their buttons and pages, I'm both intrigued and disinterested. Some of them are so inviting, warm and full of information for prospective parents and students, yet some of them were cold, sterile and had very little information, or invitation for that matter to invite families to search and learn about the school.When I have children and look into schooling options, I want it to be an easy process that feels inviting and I would also like for my children to be able to look at the website and choose for themselves which they would like.

 So, out of all the DL Schools that I looked at and researched, I would personally send my children to The Connections Academy. The reasoning as to why I would send them to this school out of the five I researched, is because of how professional, clean and straightforward the webpage looked. It was very easy to navigate. It had wonderful tabs in which was the FAQ's and had great personal quotes from online families. This is the kind of website that I feel all families would want to see when they are making such and important decision.

While I'm sure that all of the schools have great opportunities for their students and have their own unique aspects, the school I would not send my child to is The Virtual Community School of Ohio. I did not like the webpage at all due to its lack of information, the feel of the page and lack of personalization and personal success stories. It felt very cold and basic to me, and that is the last thing I would want to be putting my kid into for their education and future. This kind of made  me feel like they should do a little more investing in their website to make families feel more compelled to look into their schools as well as invited to look further into their school.
