Student Story: The Impact of Student Teacher Ratio

In her old school, Natalya didn’t feel like she was able to learn in a class with so many students. She decided it was time for a change and she and her family found Fusion.

Fusion Miracle Mile

How Long She Attended Fusion

One year and four months

Fun Fact

Instead of a graduation speech, Natalya created a video about her time at Fusion.

Natalya wasn’t happy in her big high school. She wasn’t retaining the information with so many students in the classroom and she told her parents she wanted to change schools.

She was skeptical of the one-to-one environment at first, fearing it would be awkward, but that soon changed.

“Within a week of being at Fusion, she knew this was the place, and we knew it was the place.”- Natasha Rahban, Natalya’s Mom

There was also fear that there wouldn’t be social opportunities, but Natalya made friends, and was able to connect with them on a deeper level.

“Fusion makes you feel important.” – Natalya

Natalya graduated from Fusion Academy Miracle Mile in May of 2019.

“This place provided, for our child, fertile ground to flourish.” – Natasha Rahban, Natalya’s Mom
