GBForest Trail is an exceptional school Forest Trail is an exceptional school. The curriculum is well thought out, well organized and ample material is provided for the topics. I found the teachers to be easily accessible and knowledgeable in their respective fields. Overall, it was a great experience, one I enjoyed much more than public school. I enjoyed it more because I was able to work at my own pace and got to be responsible for planning my own days.

GBForest Trail Academy is Excellent Forest Trail Academy is an excellent alternative to the traditional public school. My daughter has special needs and could not advance academically at the public school. Since enrolling at Forest Trail Academy, she is working at grade level and truly enjoys doing school work. Being able to work at her pace has been beneficial in helping her grasp new concepts. She also benefits from the one on one time we have while she is doing school work. I definitely recommend Forest Trail Academy.

GBexcellent alternative Easy to use format, quick turnaround on assignments, great flexibility (can complete one class at a time or work on all of them at the same time). Always quick to respond to questions and helpful when we have called as well. My daughter has learned way more than her peers at the local high school because there are no group assignments-she must do everything which means she learns much more, yet can go at her own pace.

GBavoid at all cost avoid at all cost, unable to access web site and login to do the school work, we tried three computers, and on each computer we tried google, safari and foxfire, and no luck and tech support said "well we can sign in so you will have to figure it out". Three days of frustration and little or no contact or response from tech support or admin. and they have a poor refund policy-dont do it, it will cost you plenty in the end

GBI have absolutely NO insight into my… I have absolutely NO insight into my child's work at all. I get an email every time he finishes an assignment, which is fine, but I cannot look at the essays he writes or find a list of work that is due and turned in or not turned in. I have used other parent portals that give a dashboard with all the critical academic info necessary for a parent to gauge how their child is doing and where they may need assistance. I would like to see a little more effort go into transparency for parents. My son recently wrote and essay that I would really like to read, but I am unable unless I am not using the website correctly...
