Classroom Format

Live Online Classes
Classes meet live online once a week on a scheduled day and time with an instructor, providing students the opportunity to interact, ask questions, collaborate, and participate in real-time learning.

Elementary and Middle School Courses: Each class session includes 75 minutes of instruction, with students expected to log in 15 minutes prior to the start of class to test audio and video, review assignments and submissions, and connect with classmates. This additional preparation and community-building time is included as part of the overall class experience, creating a total weekly time commitment of 90 minutes per class session.
High School Courses and Adult Learning Courses: Each class session includes 105 minutes of instruction, with students expected to log in 15 minutes prior to the start of class to test audio and video, review assignments and submissions, and connect with classmates. This additional preparation and community-building time is included as part of the overall class experience, creating a total weekly time commitment of 120 minutes per class session.

Class Size
At Spradlin Academy, we believe students learn best when they are known and supported. Our small student-to-teacher ratio allows instructors to engage with each student, provide individualized guidance, encourage collaboration, and create a dynamic classroom experience where every student has the opportunity to thrive.

Elementary and Middle School Courses: Classes are limited in size to ten students per course.
High School Courses and Adult Learning Courses: If enrollment demand creates a waiting list for a specific course and time, Spradlin Academy may expand the class by adding an additional instructor and utilizing online breakout rooms. These smaller learning groups allow students to collaborate, complete projects, and receive focused support while maintaining an interactive and engaging class environment.

Class Recordings
If you're unable to attend a live session, a recording of each unit will be available for one week following the class.
