Hello, my 16 yr old daughter has just stated with this program and is completing her work in 2 hours.  Is this the customary amount of  time it  takes students to complete their work each day? I was surprised that she finishes so quickly.  What is the homework policy for each class? She has only received homework from her AP English class.  
Thank you!

When students follow the Weekly Goals, it is very common for them to complete the weekly work at a faster pace. This is because the Weekly Goals are generally set at the bare minimum to pace the course for the student. However, students are able to work past the Weekly Goals that are pre-set. (The weekly goal will be broken into a 5-day week. Example: If the weekly goal is set as 10 steps, the student will be assigned 2 steps each day.)

See: https://www.acellusacademy.com/tutorials/setting-goals/ for more information in reference to the Weekly Goals. 

Special Lessons are given to the students at different times throughout each course. It is important to note that not all courses will have Special Lessons. In addition, Special Lessons are required and will need to be completed in order for the student to receive credit for the course.
