The academy, like most Stride-supplied schools, provides the student with textbooks, materials, and a loaned computer, so the student can access their online lessons.

There, parents are allowed to customize their student's school calendar and add/remove course lessons from the daily plan and add/remove vacation days.

However the student must have completed each core course (Math, English, Science, and Social Studies) to 90% or higher by the first Friday of June and have had at least 920 hours logged.

The test consists of an online multiple choice quiz and/or a textbook quiz that has multiple choice and/or short answer.

[2] Criticisms have been levelled against this schooling approach due to poor test scores.
