An Accredited
Online Elementary School
Families want to know their child’s schoolwork counts. Accelerate Online Academy is accredited by Cognia, so elementary students learn from a recognized program while working at home on a schedule that fits your family.

Credits from an accredited school
Accreditation generally makes it easier for other schools to accept a student’s records and credits. Each school makes its own decision, so if your child may transfer later, check with the receiving school.

Elementary students build the reading, math, and study habits they need for the Accelerate Online Academy accredited middle school program, where they keep using the same learning platform they already know.

What Families Say

Personalized attention made all the difference for my child. She used to say she wasn’t good at math. Her teacher showed her that she just needs more time to solve problems. Now, she enjoys math!

Parent Testimonial

The flexible schedule lets me work around my pre-professional obligations like music lessons, rehearsals, and auditions, and I’m right on track with my academic timeline. It’s the best of both worlds.

Am I required to be in class at a specific time every day?
Students in grades K-3 will have a couple required synchronous session check points throughout their Math and Language Arts courses. This one-on-one time is crucial for our teachers to assess how your child is progressing on the building blocks of core concepts such as phonics and counting. These do occur one on one with teachers, but teachers will help find times that meet family needs. But, students in all other grade levels/courses can login at the times that best fit their needs and work through the pre-recorded lessons and assignments. There is a pacing guide in each course that is a great tool for students to utilize to stay on track, but it is not mandatory to follow. Additionally, students of all grade levels can schedule one-on-one time with teachers as needed.

At Accelerate Online Academy, we place a high value on teacher interaction, recognizing its crucial role in student success. We strive to provide consistent and meaningful connections between our students and their instructors through various avenues:
- Frequent Instructor-Initiated Interaction: Our teachers actively engage with students, initiating contact to check on their progress, offer support, and provide feedback. This proactive approach ensures students feel connected and supported throughout their learning journey.
- Individualized Feedback: As students complete assignments, our teachers provide personalized feedback on their performance, highlighting strengths and offering suggestions for improvement. This feedback is delivered within our learning management system, allowing students to easily access and review it.
- Real-Time Interaction: We believe in the importance of real-time connections. Our teachers offer synchronous sessions, such as webinars or video chats, to cover specific content, answer questions, and facilitate discussions. These sessions provide opportunities for live interaction and collaboration.
- One-on-One Support: When students need extra help or personalized tutoring, our teachers are readily available for one-on-one sessions via phone, video chat, email, or text chat. This individualized support ensures students receive the specific assistance they need to succeed.
