One calendar, three lenses.
Quarter · Month · Week
This page itemizes the Year 1 implementation schedule so educators, designers, administrators, students, families, and community partners can see what is happening, what is coming next, and when preparation begins. The Aletheian Avatar Academy is an operating layer, portfolios run alongside the Academy, and cross curricular work scales from micro integrations to anchor tasks to studio cycles.

Shared visibility, predictable prep, no private student data.
