The Academy schedule is broken down into 15-minute modules, with 32 modules in a school day. The possibility exists for varying time blocks for different courses and activities. For example, an art studio course can meet for two or three longer periods of time each cycle, while foreign language classes might meet every day for a shorter period of time for intensive practice. The schedule also encourages time to pursue individual academic interests. Teachers are guides who set academic and behavioral objectives over a long period of time rather than presenters who divide their teaching into equal amounts of time.
Students are able to take individual responsibility for their time to learn.
