At The American Academy -Alabama, middle school students get the independence they crave with the support they still need. Our program recognizes that these transitional years require both academic challenge and guidance with life challenges, all while honoring your family’s unique needs and schedule.
Curriculum and Courses
Our middle school curriculum is aligned to Alabama standards and designed to prepare students for high school success while engaging their developing interests and capabilities. Core subjects include Reading, Math, Science, Social Studies, Wellness, and Arts.
Students work with greater independence while receiving targeted support from teachers. Learning includes projects, assignments, and real-world applications that prepare them for high school-level work.
