Not sure if this is the correct term but do all MLS clubs offer out of town kids a dorm facility or family to live with along with other players if they’re recruited ? Philadelphia Union does something like this not sure about others .

Believe so. Atl United does. They have residence dorms and then send the players to a private school (thinking Walker School)

AU tends to lend itself more towards sponsor/host families within the AU family. There is also a "team mom" who is on staff at AU that houses and hosts these young lads. I believe she currently has 4 under her roof. In parents meetings families where reminded to sign up to be host families, which also comes along with a financial stipend. Finally, this is only available to lads on the U15s and up. AU would prefer anyone younger who choses to move to do so organically and is still under the guidance of their own parents/guardian.

Many AU players attend Rivers Academy. Classes are held Tuesday through Thursday from 8:10 a.m. to 12:35 p.m. with optional study hall on Fridays. The condensed schedule allows athletes, actors, etc. to attend afternoon training and long weekend trips without having to miss much school.

Forsyth County has a co-blended option. Can take 4/5 core classes and 2/3 virtual. Maintain full time status so students can join clubs or sports if they wanted to.
Great option for those who dont want to spend $$ but also have the freedom to leave around 1pm.

Gwinnett County also has an Online school. Friends say the only downside is you have to sign up in February prior to the Fall semester. www.gwinnettonlinecampus.com
