- States it is not WASC-accredited by choice, saying accreditation would 'greatly diminish' its flexibility to let families choose their own curriculum. (source)
- Its own FAQ explicitly states: 'Aegean Academy is a private business and reserves the right to decline services at our discretion.' (source)
- No listed enrichment/co-op program of its own (per a third-party PSP roundup); families are pointed to a general 'Socialization' page of outside group links instead. (source)
Questions to ask
- Since there's no in-house enrichment program, what specific South Bay co-ops, park days, or classes does Aegean Academy actually recommend?
- What does the free in-house curriculum cover, and does it need to be supplemented for every subject/grade?
- How are grades, transcripts, and progress reports actually verified if the parent is both teacher and record-keeper?
