Classroom FAQs
Students in grades 1-12 are taught using the ABeka Curriculum. Currently students preschool through 4th grade are taught in the traditional setting by teachers in the classroom. Students in grades 5-12 receive their classroom lectures from the live teacher with supplemented instruction via video instructors. This enables us to offer a wide variety of subjects while keeping tuition costs down. If you’re not familiar with the Abeka Program and Curriculum you can get more information and view some sample classes by visiting this website: https://www.abeka.com/resources/samplevideos.aspx
In order to provide the best educational experience possible while still keeping tuition costs affordable some of our grades are combined. Currently classes are combined as follows: K4 and K5 are together, 1st and 2nd are together, 3rd and 3th are together, and 5th and 6th are together. Our Junior High (7th and 8th) and High School (9th-12th) are each in their own classrooms. As we continue to grow and expand we anticipate that students in grades K-4 will each be in their individual classes next year while students in grades 5-12 will be grouped as mentioned above.
Currently tuition is $7,500 per year. We offer a payment plan that allows parents to break up this amount into 10 payments. Your first payment is due August 1 making your final payment due May 1. Book fees of $300* per student are due on July 1 (or, if enrolled after July 1, upon enrollment). There is also an application fee of $250 due when the application is submitted.
*Students enrolled after August 1 may incur a $90 rush fee for books,
