How We're Different

Lee County Acceleration Academies works in partnership with The School District of Lee County to offer an alternative option for students who need more flexibility and support than what’s typically offered in traditional high schools. Each student receives a personalized learning plan with a flexible mix of online coursework, one-on-one coaching and social-emotional support. We design it all to work with your work and family obligations.

Our approach to education isn’t just flexible, it’s backed by Cognia, the world leader in providing improvement and accreditation services to educational providers. Our Cognia accreditation means that students receive a high-quality, nationally-recognized education. Plus, students that attend an accredited school gain greater access to federal loans, scholarships, post-secondary education and military programs.

My parents fought to get me here so I could walk across that stage. Handing my diploma to them, I wasn’t just doing it for me. I was doing it for them — this is what they came here for.
