Forest Trail Academy is registered with the Florida Department of Education and is fully accredited by the National Association of Private and Home Schools (NAPHS) and the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools Commission on Accreditation and School Improvement (SACS CASI). These affiliations means our courses are transferable to other schools nationwide from K-12.

While the full-time K - 12th grade programs are still the best option both academically and financially for most families, we recognize that there may be good reasons why a student may wish to take only a course or two with us. We are pleased to offer our courses on an individual basis both online and independent study distance learning. Both programs offer grading, report card, and transcript services. Forest Trail Academy is simply making these courses available individually outside of the full-time program.

Students taking individual courses with Forest Trail Academy who are not enrolled in our full-time, or diploma program are not eligible to graduate from Forest Trail Acadmey or receive a high school diploma. Students who transfer into the full-time program for at least the twelfth grade (or a minimum of 3 credits) and meet the same criteria as other transfer students can be awarded a High School diploma. Credits awarded for individual courses are also transferable to our full-time program.
