Mission

To develop students who take personal responsibility for their life-long education. We achieve this through individualized instruction in a safe, positive, and nurturing learning environment.

Customized online curriculum

Our curriculum is offered through our partnership with Advantages International School located in Nevada, which is a U.S. Advance-Ed accredited school.  They have an additional accreditation by the NCAA for athletes specifically pursuing a university sports scholarship. Our courses can be customized both to areas of interest as well as to Standard, Honors or Advanced Placement level.  We also offer bi-monthly field trips which we feel are an integral component to a student’s holistic learning experience.

Each semester a student receives a legal transcript and will ultimately graduate with a U.S. diploma. Students receive SAT practice, college application assistance, and guidance with scholarships. Graduates have attended universities in the United States, Europe, Guatemala, or joined the U.S. Department of Defense.

Flexible work pace

Our program allows students to enroll at any time of the year and to work at their own pace.  The teachers design individualized schedules for each student based on their personalized goals.   Our school facilities operate between the hours of 8 am – 1:30 pm.  Students are most successful when they attend daily and receive guidance and instruction from their teachers, but daily attendance is not required. Many students require flexible schedules due to their dedication to sports, pursuit of the arts, or travel.  Students have found that our school’s flexibility allows them to complete their education at a pace that meets their specific needs and goals. Our teachers are trained and experienced working with gifted students as well as students with learning disabilities.

Student to Teacher Ratio

If you are looking for more teacher involvement than a traditional system, our 5-to-1 student-to-teacher ratio provides the highest level of personal attention for your student.
