Is Continental Academy Legitimate? SACS, CITA

Hi, I found this school online to complete a high school diploma. The school states they are CITA & SACS accredited. I was wondering if they are the real deal? the program cost only $395 I just find this hard to believe. So will this correspondence diploma be worth the same as Penn Foster when it comes to accreditation?

Thanks in advance,

Life Penn Foster High School, Continental Academy is regionally accredited, which is exactly what you want in a high school program. My local brick and mortar high school is regionally accredited. That's a great price for the program, too. I'm considering Continental Academy for my own son, who is currently home schooled.

 

Something to know is that Continental Academy has two programs. They are:

1. The EAGLE program which is the online program. It is only for students who are 18 or older; and

2. The Home School program. This is a pen-and-paper program. It is for students who are at least 16 years of age. As opposed to other distance learning high school programs, this is more of a diploma-completion program.
