College Park Academy utilizes an online Educational Technology platform to deliver the curriculum.

[2] The school built a new 50,400-square-foot (4,680 m2) facility to house the students and plans to open in fall 2017 at its new location, south of College Park-University of Maryland Discovery Direct station and opposite the National Weather Service building at the University of Maryland.

Which gives students a personalized learning experience that they can access online at school and at home and allows acceleration on an individual basis.

Since the founding CPA students have taken the following courses: Philosophy, Intro to Engineering Design, Computer Science, Intensive Intermediate French, Geography, Sociological Social Psychology, Intro to Criminal Justice, Infant Development, and General Astronomy.

Any rising 6-12 grade students that are currently enrolled in a public Prince George's County school can apply during the lottery window from November–January.

Through this partnership, the University of Maryland students are afforded service learning opportunities, internships, and paid positions which helps them to develop vocational and leadership skills for future employment.

The school was launched in the aftermath of the COVID-19 pandemic to expand upon the success of curriculum and methods at College Park Academy and reach a wider audience.

College Park Academy Online offered rolling admissions for students grades 6–12.
