Acellus STEM 10
Teaching Elementary Students Skills of the Future
STEM careers are continuing to grow at an astounding rate. However, most elementary schools have not yet incorporated STEM into their curriculum.
Acellus STEM 10 is designed to prepare students for careers in science and technology. The program introduces coding to Acellus students in 3rd grade. Each year students will expand their knowledge and further develop their skills in STEM fields. By the time students are in 9th grade, they get the opportunity to learn in a Career and Technical field that matches their interests.
STEM 10 – Level 1
In the first year of STEM-10, students take the Level 1 Coding Course. This course targets students in the 3rd grade, but is excellent for any student starting out in coding. Beginning at square zero, the course advances step-by-step through the fundamentals of coding providing students with direct instruction as they work through the course. Part way through the course, students are introduced to Cellus Bot, an educational robot that provides hands-on coding practice.
STEM 10 – Level 2
The second year of STEM-10 (targeting 4th grade), students meet AC-D2, a sophisticated robot that is a master dancer. With approximately 10,000 possible step combinations, AC-D2 can sway twist and dance. Students learn to program this more advanced robot through the Level 2 Acellus coding course, which teaches students the syntax needed to program in JavaScript. This allows students to engage in serious coding tasks that will control the robot’s personality and movements.

Frequently Asked Questions by Parents of Elementary Students:
What is the age limit to enroll into Acellus Academy elementary school?
Beginning at age five, students are welcome to enroll in Acellus Academy’s online elementary school. There is no maximum age limit.
How will my student learn at Acellus Academy?
In Acellus Academy, each online elementary course incorporates self-paced video lessons taught by some of the best teachers from across the nation. The lesson videos will focus on teaching one concept at a time. After each lesson, students will be tested on their understanding of the material that was just presented. If they understand and have mastered the concept, they will move right on to the next lesson.
When a student is having trouble, they may access additional instructional resources which may include help videos, help problems, and an online lesson manual.
In this way, no student is held back from advancing and no student is left behind or pushed through the material at too fast of a pace. With this interactive teaching method, we are able to ensure that each student masters the material and will be prepared to earn a passing grade and receive credit when they complete the class.
Do students need to sign in at a certain time?
Since Acellus Academy is completely self-paced, we do not require students to sign in at specific times. We make the program available 24/7 year round so that you can set up whatever schedule works best for your student’s specific schooling environment.
This enables you to plan breaks and vacations as needed for your student. If they do not log in on a certain day we will assume that you have excused them. We give credit based on mastery of the course material.
Will the tuition go up as my elementary student enters higher grades?
No, our tuition is based on a monthly or annual plan. The grade level or number of courses (1-6) does not affect the tuition rate.
