School introduction

Central Texas · San Marcos · SMA Academy is located in San Marcos, Texas. The required length of stay depends on the entry season: a complete semester for spring entry or a complete academic year for fall entry. Families can choose a direction based on their current school calendar and available time.

Study follows the regular school cycle. Grade eligibility, academic and English requirements, entry dates and accommodation need to be discussed in light of the child’s circumstances.

Curriculum

Course planning covers a complete semester or academic year and takes account of previous studies, grade and language background. Subjects, electives and activities depend on the teaching schedule for the period.

Families seeking continuity with a current school should discuss credits, learning records and return-to-school requirements. Include English-support and other learning needs in the enrolment plan; contact an advisor for details.

• Courses and learning support depend on grade, language proficiency and the school’s arrangements for that period.
