Instructions for Releasing Educational Records
Connections Academy will provide educational records, including official high school transcripts, class rank, and test scores to third parties (e.g., post-secondary institutions, scholarship committees, potential employers) only with prior written approval from the student’s parent(s), legal guardian(s), a student aged 18 or older, or any other Eligible Student. Requests for the release of records should be made by completely filling out the following sections of this form: Student and School Information; Institution Release Information; and Signature of Parent/Legal Guardian or Eligible Student. You only need to fill out the Recommendation Release Information section if you will be requesting letters of recommendation from Connections Academy staff members. For more information on letters of recommendation, review the instructions listed below. To ensure that application deadlines are successfully met, we require at least 10 working days for requests to provide educational records. Please review the High School Class Rank section below for more information about the calculation of Class Rank. Also note that class rank is only calculated twice a year.

If your area of strength is dedication, give an example that shows this quality - tell about a time when you defied the odds due to not giving up.
