MagiCore Academy has digital resources for primary, elementary, and middle school. There is more elementary content than primary and middle, but since you’ll have access to all the digital resources, you can use resources that are on, above, and below grade level to meet your students’ needs. We offer a 10-day free trial so you can see if the content fits your specific needs.

No, they’re totally digital. This allows us to use interactive multimedia elements we wouldn’t be able to create on paper.

The license is for one teacher in one classroom or one household (homeschool parents). Our base plan includes up to 25 student seats; however, we have packages available for up to 100 students. For privacy reasons, students may not share student seats/accounts; however, you can create student accounts for small groups or whole class exercised providing they are being used within the Terms of Service. Academy may not be used for commercial purposes (e.g. tutoring center) unless express permission is provided. If you are interested in using Academy for your school or business, please CLICK HERE.

You can cancel a paid subscription anytime. Users who cancel paid subscriptions will continue to have access until the end of the paid period. We do not refund or prorate canceled subscriptions.
