I’m less than 10 minutes from the place where this “school” is supposed to be built and have heard nothing about it before yesterday. That’s strange to me.

"USA Academy will use Edgenuity — which is used by many local schools for online classes."
I cannot speak for other schools, but we use it for alternative school, credit recovery, intervention, and summer school. Based on that use, makes me wonder how serious they will be taking the S in their name! It will be interesting to see the cumulative GPA for these athletes when they post their academic credentials while being recruited.

Seems like a Last Chance U type of scenario.

Seems like a Last Chance U type of scenario. For $13,750 annually, one better make it a good Last Chance. I wonder who the big $$ is (are) behind this?? Seems cheap compared to ALL other Live In prep schools that I am familiar with. May not include room and board etc, etc. The facts will out.

It appears they have a full load of work to do to schedule academic classes and field a team for this fall.

Word is they are already encountering problems with financing this adventure.
