It’s amazing that our public school district offers a fully online option like Sojourner Truth Independent Study. Not every family’s situation is the same, and this school really recognizes that—whether it’s for health reasons, travel, work schedules, or just finding the right learning environment, they go above and beyond to support students and families in all kinds of circumstances.The teachers are caring, respectful, and really work to keep students motivated. Learning feels engaging, and it’s clear the staff wants every student to succeed, both academically and emotionally. They offer strong social-emotional support and make sure students with different needs get the accommodations they require.It also feels like a safe and inclusive space where students can be themselves without worry. While family involvement can vary, the school still works to keep parents in the loop and make them feel welcome.Sojourner Truth Independent Study is such a gift for families who need a flexible, supportive, and high-quality education, all within our public school system.

Hidden gem private school. Outstanding, graduate level teachers and super supportive community. Part of Northeastern University. Our daughter, now grade 1, has been incredibly happy there.
