Our curriculum is aligned with Florida’s new B.E.S.T. standards to prepare students for success in high school courses. By focusing on developing critical thinking skills and content knowledge across multiple domains, the curriculum prepares students to meet the challenges of an ever-changing world.

8th grade Accelerated Program - Students who pass their 7th grade mathematics state exams qualify for our accelerated 8th grade program where they can take required high school courses such as Algebra I and Biology I while still in middle school. Earning two high school credits in middle school will be a great boost toward their high school graduation requirements, but students who show initiative and aptitude can take it even further. 

For example, one of our 8th grade students successfully completed 6 high school classes in the 8th grade! This means that they will enter high school as a 10th grader and have a significant head start on their path to college.

Clubs and after-school activities include Student Council, Theatre, Art Club, Bible Club, and Soccer Club.

In addition to what MA offers, students may play any sport through the school they are zoned for. Micanopy Academy students take many field trips throughout the year to fun and educational places like the Butterfly Museum, the Hoggetowne Medieval Faire, DEFY Gainesville Trampoline Park, University of Florida IFAS Fisheries and Aquatic Sciences, University of Florida Engineering Fair, Silver Springs State Park, and many more. We also host Career Days where students can learn from professionals in fields like Law Enforcement, Law, Veterinary Medicine, Banking, Nursing, Firefighting, and more!
