Online School for Nashville Families | Forest Trail Academy
Your family chose Nashville for its energy, its opportunity, and its pace — and your child’s education should keep up with all of it. Whether you’re a music industry family squeezing studio sessions between homework, a new arrival from California or New York following Amazon or Oracle’s relocation to Music City, or a healthcare professional at HCA Healthcare juggling shifts and school pick-ups, traditional schedules don’t always fit your life. Forest Trail Academy gives Nashville K-12 students a fully accredited, self-paced online education that works around your world — not the other way around.
Why Nashville Families Choose FTA
Nashville is growing faster than almost any other major city in America, and with that growth comes complexity. Families relocating for AllianceBernstein’s new HQ or one of the dozens of corporate campuses popping up along the I-65 corridor often arrive mid-year, when every local school has a waitlist and a rigid enrollment window. FTA has open enrollment every week of the year — so your kids can start learning the Monday after you arrive, without losing credits or momentum. And because our diploma is Cognia-accredited, it’s recognized by every Tennessee university, from Vanderbilt and Belmont to MTSU and Tennessee State, as well as 1,000+ colleges nationwide.
For Music City’s aspiring artists and performers, FTA is a natural fit. If your teenager is writing songs, booking studio time at Blackbird Studio, or touring regionally with a youth ensemble, a fixed 7:45 a.m. bell just isn’t going to work. FTA students set their own daily schedule — coursework can happen in the early morning before a session, late at night after a rehearsal, or spread across the weekend. Parents in the Belmont, East Nashville, and Green Hills communities have told us it’s the first school that finally felt built for creative kids. And because enrollment never closes, there’s no season to wait for — you can get started this week.
