A Better Fit for Today's Students
Async Academy is an online-only private school built to work in synergy with your student's regular day school. By focusing entirely on modern course delivery without the overhead of physical campuses or duplicative administration, we deliver top-tier Ontario high school credits at a fraction of traditional tuition costs.
Works With Your Day School
-
•
Keep Your Home Base: Your student remains enrolled at their regular high school, which continues to maintain their Ontario Student Record (OSR).
-
•
Official Credit Transfer: When a course is completed, we submit final marks directly to the Ontario Ministry of Education and send official report cards to your day school guidance department to update their transcript.
Total Schedule Freedom
-
•
Zero Timetable Conflicts: No set bell times, no mandatory Zoom lectures, and no commute. Work whenever and wherever fits best.

Built for Real Life: Ideal for competitive athletes, working students, artists, or anyone who needs learning that adapts to their daily life.
Lower Cost, Higher Value

High-Trust, No-Stress Exams
Exams are a critical part of earning credits, but they shouldn't be a source of panic. We have redesigned the proctored exam experience from the ground up to respect students' schedules, energy, and comfort, while maintaining the highest standards of academic integrity.
One Answer at a Time
Instead of staring at a massive, overwhelming exam paper, students write and finalize exactly one answer at a time. This keeps focus sharp and anxiety low.
- Focus entirely on the active task without cognitive overload.
- No scrolling back and forth or second-guessing past work.
- Clean, minimalist workspace designed for deep focus.
Breaks Between Questions
Exams don't have to be a grueling multi-hour marathon. Students can complete a question, upload the proctoring segment, securely save it, and exit to take a break.
- Take breaks between questions to rest your mind and stretch.
- Your completed answers are locked and saved immutably.
- Close your browser and resume writing whenever you are ready.
Student-Led Proctoring
No high-stress live proctors watching your screen or tracking your eye movements. We use verification-based camera recording that students control.
- Simple proctoring check-in using a phone or webcam stream.
- No invasive browser extensions or software takeovers.
- Continue recording in a single stream or upload per question.
