Hybrid Homeschool Programs
In a hybrid homeschool program like Schola, families enjoy the best of both educational worlds by mixing home instruction with traditional class instruction.
Home instruction provides:
- Personalization – From the Schola class schedule, parents choose the course of study that is best for their student, including advanced courses that the parent does not feel equipped to teach. Our Academic Advisor is available to help parents make an educational plan that is appropriate for each child.
- Flexibility – Each family can uniquely structure at-home study days to carefully manage family time, outside activities, and homework.
- Family – Parents are ultimately responsible for the education of their children and continue to act as a primary mentor during the early, critical years of a child’s education and spiritual formation. Parents fulfill this role as they facilitate learning on the days students are at home.
Classroom instruction provides:
- Structure – Teachers provide subject expertise and resources in concentrated class instruction once or twice per week. Teachers also provide weekly assignments so that students and parents know exactly what work should be completed at home before the next class meeting.
- Accountability – Teachers provide instruction and set expectations for student learning at home. Teachers evaluate progress by means of quizzes, tests, and writing assignments and provide consistent feedback to students and parents regarding progress in each class.
- Community – Students learn, grow, and socialize in a community of faith that nourishes the whole child.
