Online Middle School Courses

Acellus Academy’s online middle school courses cover the core subjects of mathematics, language arts and reading, science, and history and social studies.

Our team collaborates with some of the best middle and junior high school teachers in the country to develop our online middle school curriculum. Each of our lessons includes engaging videos and interactive coursework, which pique the interest of students and ignites excitement around their classes.

Prism Diagnostics™, our proprietary technology that identifies deficiencies in a student’s academic background, gives students a unique opportunity to receive further instruction in problem areas. Coursework is designed to cater to students in each grade level as they prepare for high school in the upcoming years.

Students in each grade further develop their knowledge of different topics by building on what they learned in the prior year. By the end of fifth grade, students will be prepared for Acellus Academy’s online middle school.

Although Acellus Academy is primarily a K-12 online school, two preschool courses are available for younger children. These classes are for young students to get acclimated to online school and begin to develop basic skills before enrolling in kindergarten.
