Testimonials

The USPA virtual school system is something we wouldn’t have even considered until Covid came around. But it has been around for a lot longer than that, and was set up by a bunch of Olympic athletes, to help others who maybe have to go to Switzerland for skiing or Australia for sailing. So it is great for young kids who want to pursue their athletic ability but also combine it with their schooling.” Stephen Gaudin, USPA Parent
