At ASTC Academy, it is our responsibility to be sure each and every athlete is getting a quality education while pursuing their goals and dreams in snowboarding. Our educational system is individualized, offering various options to create a truly balanced program of academics and athletics no matter what state or country the student's home school is located in.
While our preferred method of educating our athletes at the academy is with our state licensed academic facility, we've had many students over the years bring their own accredited online education systems with online teacher support.
​
Since 2008, (TTC) The Tutorial Center has successfully managed all aspects of the academics for ASTC Academy students. The academic center communicates directly with the athlete's home school to explain the process of how the education is done during the winter term in Vermont. In most cases their school is willing to provide the curriculum keeping the student enrolled. Some states are more challenging than others in this process but we generally are able to satisfy every state's curriculum and high standards of education with our process. TTC typically will be given access to the school's curriculum via online portal, using it to formulate the daily lessons, labs, and exams. For Vermont residents, the process is very simple considering TTC’s existing relationships with local schools and being a state licensed facility for education.
If the school is unwilling to provide the curriculum for the winter term, it is still possible to do the academy. You will need to meet with your guidance counselor to discuss the schools process of un-enrollment. The school still may agree to provide the curriculum while being unenrolled making the process seamless with our educators. If the students curriculum cannot be obtained from the school an online system with teacher support is the best option. Some of the online accredited platforms our athletes have successfully used are Apex Learning, Keystone, Vlacs and The US Performance Academy(USPT).
Students using our education services at the academy and through the online systems have gone onto schools such as University of Vermont, Colorado College, University of Colorado Boulder, Sierra Nevada College, Plymouth State University, Santa Clara University, University of Southern California, Georgetown University, University of Utah, Rutgers University, Syracuse University and NYU.
