Meet Our Global Community of Learners

Aurelia T.

An ambitious and driven equestrian athlete, Aurelia wanted to begin competing at the international level, which would require significant travel. She knew she would have to look at joining an online school, but did not want to compromise on the quality of her education or the feeling of connection she had at her previous school. Joining Prestans as a freshman, she excelled academically and was able to compete in shows across the country in hunter, jumper, and equitation. Now at Northeastern, Prestans set Aurelia up for success both in and out of school.

Sheridan M.

Sheridan is a highly talented soccer player who competes with The Revolution Academy's U18 team. As the demands of training increased, it became impossible for him to balance soccer with his education at a prestigious private school in Massachusetts. He joined Prestans Online Academy to maintain his academic momentum while gaining the flexibility necessary to continue growing as a player. Sheridan is committed to play at UVM.

Kara H.

At three years old, Kara began her journey as a dancer, soon falling in love with ballet. As her commitment to this calling grew, she struggled to find balance with her education. Leaving her boarding school, Kara joined Prestans, which provided her with flexibility, a dynamic online academic program, and a connection with other ballerinas.  

Paige M.

Paige joined Prestans through our Credit Continuation program, which affords students the opportunity to continue their education while taking time away from their in-person school. While she initially had planned to return to that school, she ultimately decided to continue with Prestans as a full-time student through her senior year. Now a student at University of Colorado Boulder, Paige is a confident self-advocate committed to pursuing her own unique journey.

 
 

Julian & Donovan F. 

Recruited to play Division 1 hockey at Yale University, Julian and Donovan left prep school after their junior year to play in the BCHL. Not satisfied with the more commonly available impersonal online programs, they instead joined Prestans. Finding an online program that offered flexibility, personal connection, and also a high quality education was key in preparing them for Yale.
