Academy ACL allows my children to be who they are. There is no mold they have to fit into. Plus, there is normally very minimal homework. This allows kids to be kids, participate in extracurricular activities, and not get stressed about school from an early age. The other great thing is that the whole school shifts for math and language arts. The kids are placed according to their ability. It's great to meet kids where they are academically and allow them to work at a higher or lower level depending on what's needed.
