For our full-time online STEM school, we enroll students in 3rd -12th grades.  Each application is reviewed individually and an admission decision is made on a case-by-case basis.  To apply, the application form along with previous school records and a consent for records form must be submitted.  Admissions decisions are generally made within 3-5 business days.

Full-time students will enjoy the comfort of a very supportive environment.  Certified teachers will contact the student and parent/guardian for regular monthly checks.  A live homework session is available throughout the week at various times of the day.  The curriculum has several form so built-in support including a direct messenger to allow you to message the teacher directly on the page that you have a question about.  There is a dictionary tool to help define words, objectives and vocabulary to prepare you for the lesson, and sticky post-it notes on lesson pages to allow you to write notes which can be later accessed for studying or printing.  Videos, games, and quizzes also help to reinforce the lesson content.  For English language learners, there is also a translation tool to allow you to translate text in the courseware into your native language–over 20 languages are available!

Homeschool students can use the independent study curriculum at their own pace, and will have access to the curriculum for 1 year (365 days including date of purchase).

Full-time academy students will have access to the curriculum for 1 year, however teacher support is provided only from August to May.  Students are required to log 180 days of class time as per state regulations.

The full-time private school is for students who want to be registered with a private school and have the guidance and support of certified teachers and academic counselors.  Private school students receive support from our staff for the academic school year August through May, but are able to use the curriculum through July if necessary.  The curriculum is based on the Common Core and Next Generation Science Standards; state specific standards can be also be used, just let your academic advisor know during your enrollment conference.  California students can also tailor their courses to California requirements for entry into the California public university system.

Independent study homeschoolers purchase the curriculum and use it independently as homeschool students.  Please discuss homeschool requirements with your local school district or state Department of Education.  We can tailor courses to state specific courses as needed.
