My school used to use APEX; but starting this year we moved to Edmentum when it bought out APEX.
This.
Site.
Sucks.
Due to health problems I take all necessary classes online. The "tutorials" are actual bullshit, with pages and pages of text and the occasional problem. The practice on Algebra is fairly easy, but doesn't prepare you for the mastery test, none of it makes sense, and I genuinely am filled with such unbridled rage looking at this stupid website every damn day. I start uncontrollably crying and shaking with anger whenever I have to log on.

Absolutely awful. I have completely lost confidence in Edmentum. I have personally seen what appeared to be the exact same question have different "correct" answers at different times. If students are expected to learn, the platform should at least be able to provide consistent answers instead of making people question whether they're being graded fairly.
I also feel the curriculum has a severe liberal bias and often presents opinions or contested viewpoints as if they are unquestionable facts. In my experience, it does not do a good job of distinguishing between factual information and interpretation, and it leaves very little room for students to think critically or consider multiple perspectives.
Education should be about teaching verifiable facts, encouraging critical thinking, and grading students consistently. Instead, my experience with Edmentum has been frustration, inconsistency, and a lack of confidence in the material. I would not recommend this platform to anyone looking for an objective and reliable learning experience.

This site is terrible.
This site is abhorrent. Everything is incredibly buggy, and on the graphing tool, there is no undo button. Not even a reset button. Mess up one data point? Congrats, its locked in now! Yup, you can't delete anything if you mess it up, even if you haven't even submitted the question. I had to email my teacher to reset the entire assignment because of ONE TYPO.

As a first hand student I do not recommend
I had done online learning in the past, and I have never had such a bad experience. The first semester went well, but after that, the teachers basically stopped answering anything. The only teacher who would ever reach out to me was my algebra teacher, who was super kind and very easy to get in contact with. Every other teacher basically stopped reaching out to me, and if I would message them, it could take them at least 3 days to get back to me! Today was my last day of the school year, and my school used to go by quarters (1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th). The first quarter went decently, as I said before, but after that, it just went downhill, especially once I got my AP US Government and Politics teacher. Every assignment for her class had to be a written response, which I really didn't mind, but after I submitted my first assignment wrong, she didn't tell me what I needed to fix. But that wasn't the issue; the issue was that I had messaged her twice in one week about how to do the assignment, and she never responded to me. During my 3rd quarter, I failed every class because the teachers had stopped grading my work! I then reached out to my high school principal, and that got me nowhere. A few weeks later, I got an email from him saying I was at risk of not moving on to the next grade. I was devastated. I had gone from a straight A student to a straight F student. I have also reached out to Edmentum support multiple times, and they always said they were looking into things, then never got back to me. My main issues were the huge lack of communication and then just not grading ANYTHING. I also find it very ignorant and unacceptable that I had to reach out to these "teachers" more than 5 times about the same issues just to get a response. I really do not recommend Edmentum unless you want to wait weeks for unresponsive teachers and failing grades.

long review, but edmentum is horrible and should NEVER be used in schools again
i cant even begin on why i hate edmentum. i am a middle schooler going to be in highschool later this year and thank god i am potentially going to not have to use this horrible excuse for a cirriculum ever again
it is used for homeschooling/independent study in my district and i genuinely cannot do it anymore without having a emotional break down and strong feelings of self hatred due to it triggering my low self esteem
it has boring, unengaging, and not nuerodivergent friendly "lessons" that have horrible explanations to the point where i learn nothing and rarely ever use what i "learned" via edmentum itself for things like tests, and the activities are ridiculously long and always too big of a ask to "teach" something that could be summarized in 1 sentence
the "mastery tests" are 5 questions long and as someone who cheats due to how rigged the questions are, sometimes all available answers arent the correct one and i just have to guess and hope i dont get 2 or more questions wrong so i dont fail
the guided notes are also miserable and some if not most lessons have at least one word i need to put in the guided notes missing from the text, ive had to do guided notes for a whole lesson that has missing answers to the guided notes on every single slide, also its 30-50 slides most of the time and if its 30 or under theres 2+ long activities, so i will never get my work done in time
its also very patronizing and the way some topics are explained especially in history is in my opinon questionable, and some subjects have a completely different topic in their lessons, for example english having things about how to succeed in life
i also hated the elementary verison in 3rd-5th grade but this review is quite long, im sorry for the long rant but PLEASE never put edmentum in your schools if youre in charge of that stuff, its horrible for the students and even parents

When I try to log on
When I try to log on, it wouldn’t let me use clever or Google. Those two were the only one that I knew to login. It was supposed to manually login because I was logged into clever before I went into Edmentum . It didn’t let me login they are planning on my downfall.
