SAI Academy
The Orlando City SC Campus is a full-time academic program operated by SAI Academy, a fully academic provider responsible for curriculum delivery with certified teachers, accredited transcripts, and college-prep advising.
SAI’s academic curriculum ensures students receive high-quality, globally recognized coursework aligned with national academic standards.
Step Up for Students PEP Hybrid Scholarship Program
Instruction for PEP students at SAI Academy of Orlando City is delivered through a structured hybrid learning model that combines in-person instruction with guided independent learning.
During on-campus learning days, certified teachers provide direct instruction, small-group support, and individualized guidance in core academic subjects. On independent learning days, students complete standards-aligned coursework through approved digital learning platforms.
Each student follows a personalized learning plan with weekly goals and assigned coursework designed to support academic growth. Teachers monitor progress through assignment reviews, real-time tracking within digital platforms, and regular one-on-one check-ins. Monthly progress reviews help ensure students remain on track and allow instructional plans to be adjusted as needed.
Student attendance and participation are documented through both in-person attendance records and verified engagement with online coursework. Regular communication with parents and guardians helps promote accountability, encourages student success, and fosters a strong partnership between home and school.

D1 CommitmentsI can not say enough great things about SAI Academy. Shamini, Milan, Sarah, Rich, Cedric, and Eli treat us and Aubrey as family. The care they take, and the personal learning and development are top of the chart. Aubrey is in her 4th year at SAI, and we are tremendously impressed with how the program has grown in the field and in the classroom. I’m extremely impressed. WE ARE SO THANKFUL FOR SAI

I have had the incredible opportunity to pursue my passion for soccer through the Talentprojekt in Germany while continuing my education with SAI Academy. SAI provided me with the flexibility to tailor my studies to my own pace, accommodating my demanding training schedules, tournaments, and games. This non-traditional approach to education allowed me to excel beyond my expectations. The support I received from SAI was exceptional; they were always there to ensure I had the resources and guidance needed to succeed both on the field and in the classroom.

SAI has been a great experience for me and my family. Moving here to play for Dc United was something that I wanted to do for a long time. When I heard that the academy was getting a school I knew it was the right time to make the big decision. SAI has made me a better player, student, and overall person. All of the teachers are very helpful and kind to me, as well as all of the students. One of my favorite things about the school is the schedule. SAI also gives the students the opportunity to work from anywhere.
