OUR ACADEMICS ARE
Customized
Working with our trusted education partners, we offer a completely customized platform where individuals study online with certified instructors. The TPH Academy Blended Learning Environment is deliberately designed for student-athletes. It combines in-person learning guidance with the latest educational technology and virtual academic resources. Course progress is actively supervised and optimized in real-time by our academic leaders. Student-athletes are prepared to become independent, self-starting college freshmen through our mastery-based learning approach.
The TPH Academy blended learning environment combines an online curriculum, on-site infrastructure, and academic support. Academic leaders are in the classroom working with students to ensure a positive learning environment, accountability, a personalized structure and accelerated learning programs as they train for their sport.

Through our trusted education partners, our academy course library provides student-athletes with access to NCAA-approved core classes, an extensive collection of AP offerings, and over 80 custom electives, including foreign languages, arts, and more. All graduating student-athletes will receive a private/public school diploma issued by our state partner. Students not only advance their education but also learn organizational skills, study techniques, and how to adapt their own learning styles.
Courses and assignments are tailored to each individual and prioritized by the TPH academic team in partnership with the student-athlete with their weekly sports and competition schedule in mind.
- Individually Tailored Courseware

Frequently Asked Questions
While we are one team, TPH Academy is not a sports team. We are an academy that allows you to focus on your individual skills. Additionally, you can still play for your current team. This creates an ideal training environment where our student-athletes can build a community with like-minded peers.
At TPH Academy, each student-athlete learns from certified Teachers through our customizable virtual platforms, with access to virtual tutors 24/7. Our on-site Head of Academics and Success Coach(es) are additional resources as they cultivate an environment conducive to learning. These multiple layers of support ensure that your student-athlete receives a personalized academic plan, preparing them for the ultimate game: the game of life.
Our student-athletes train in the on-site gym four days a week with our coaches.
DID YOU KNOW: student-athletes can receive physical education credit for the training.
They are certainly welcome to, but we also offer a meal plan in partnership with local restaurants within the facility, featuring healthy, delicious options at an affordable price.
Flexibility is a cornerstone of the TPH Academy experience. We recognize that the traditional brick-and-mortar system often conflicts with the demands placed on elite student-athletes. Because our platform can operate virtually, we offer a flexible attendance policy that accounts for travel requirements and the physical toll of a long season. While we believe student-athletes gain the most value from being on-site, we empower them to work with their Academy Director to build a customized schedule. There are no penalties for days missed due to academic or athletic commitments.
The TPH Academy Mentorship Program is designed to guide student-athletes through "the process" of elite development—focusing on character, discipline, and leadership. This comprehensive curriculum includes Coach FA’s Mentorship Program, which provides specialized mindset training to help athletes handle the pressures of high-level competition. Beyond the classroom and sport, our students engage with industry-leading guest speakers and participate in community service projects to build a well-rounded perspective and a sense of social responsibility.
TPH Academy provides balance as we tailor our athletic and academic development model to each student-athlete. Much of the daily experience is shaped by when, where, and how your student-athlete studies, trains, and plays at his or her best.
Courses and assignments are customized for each individual and prioritized by the TPH academic team in partnership with the student-athlete, with their weekly sports and competition schedule in mind.
Additionally, we require our student-athletes to complete weekly surveys to help our staff understand their holistic well-being. These surveys track sleep, nutrition, injuries, and more to ensure we know how to balance each student-athlete's workload.
TPH Academy is committed to providing an inclusive learning environment that sets every student-athlete up for success. We offer support for IEPs and 504 plans by utilizing adaptable learning spaces designed for diverse learners. To ensure we can fully meet a student’s specific requirements, we facilitate a determination meeting with our education partner to review individual needs and develop a tailored success plan.
