Jack was a very gifted learner but was struggling in middle school to have classes that allowed a challenge for him. His family started looking for other options and came across Vail Virtual. Vail Virtual offered the same rigorous academic program as all other award-winning Vail schools but also allowed students to take advanced courses through an online platform to tailor instruction to individual needs. 

Jack and his family were initially hesitant, but quickly realized the benefits: learning at their own pace, focusing on areas of need, and collaborating with classmates and teachers on projects and assignments. By providing a personalized and rigorous learning experience, online learning can help gifted students reach their full potential.
