Build the schedule
that fits your child.
The baseline: core academics in live small group cohorts, independent work in Studio, and a morning learning pod - plus the option to layer in sustained 1:1 subject instruction when your child needs more. Every piece designed around how your child actually learns.
Core academics in small group cohorts
Live academic classes in small group cohorts - a handful of students, a credentialed teacher, and a mastery bar everyone clears. Working alongside peers keeps the momentum going, with a teacher close enough to catch every gap.
Live, synchronous instruction with a teacher who knows every student in the room by name.
Working alongside peers keeps focus and follow-through going, every school day.
Each unit has explicit mastery criteria. Students move forward on demonstrated mastery and loop back without shame when something doesn't stick.
When a concept needs more than the cohort hour, your child gets 1:1 academic support - scheduled to the need.
Self-directed classes
Independent study on a structured curriculum your child can move through at their own pace. Every self-directed class includes 24/7 access to our Instant Help Center.
Each class has a clear scope and sequence. Within it, your child controls the pace.
Weekly progress reviews, recap emails, and progress reports - you always know where your child stands, well before any report card.
Self-directed is a different shape of learning for the right subjects, held to the same mastery bar.
Every self-directed class has a tutor built right into the curriculum. Your child posts a stuck math step, a confusing passage, or a writing block - and gets a worked-through, step-by-step explanation back in seconds. Around the clock, no waiting on email.
Morning learning pods
Every school day starts in a learning pod - the same small group of students and the same Recess adult, working through the morning together. Structure, company, and help that keeps the work moving.
Your child works alongside the same small group every morning. The routine carries the day: show up, settle in, start.
An adult in the room - for a check-in, a read-through, or just to keep the focus going.
Working in parallel with familiar faces makes hard tasks easier to start and easier to finish.
When you want more 1:1 in a subject
Sustained 1:1 in a single subject - math, writing, a language, exam prep - with a credentialed subject teacher. Available whenever your child needs it, designed with your family as an add-on to baseline.
Math with a math teacher. Writing with a writing teacher. Spanish with a Spanish teacher.
Depth, length, and cadence get designed on the intake call - tuned to your child's specific gap or goal.
1:1 subject work supplements the cohorts, Studio, enrichment classes, and the morning pods.
