Students also have the opportunity to take online courses through Classical Academy Personalized Learning or take courses at a local community college.

CAHS studio (classroom) courses follow the quarter system. This allows students to focus on 3-4 courses at one time. The majority of courses are considered “accelerated” in which a year’s worth of content is covered in 18 weeks. Yearlong courses (which meet for a full 36 weeks) include all levels of math, advanced placement courses, physical education courses, and some electives.

Classical Academy partners with parents to prepare students for “College, Career, and Citizenship.” Students have the flexibility to choose a program that best fits their learning style. CAHS offers various programs across two different campuses:

Classical Academy High School – Studio Campus

4 days on campus

The Studio Program is designed to serve students who would like to attend class in a traditional classroom setting four days per week (Tuesday – Friday) in an accelerated classroom environment. Studio teachers use lectures, small group interactions, labs, field trips, and projects to deliver an engaging and rigorous curriculum. Students in this program agree to exhibit respectful conduct and academic responsibility, including the timely completion of quality work and daily attendance. All core classes except for math and Advanced Placement (AP) are taught in an accelerated format of 18 weeks.

Our Five Day Independent Study Program is a full homeschool program where the parent is the primary educator.  An Educational Specialist will assist the parent with choosing curriculum.  The parent, as the primary educator, will teach the curriculum, grade all student work, and provide documentation to the Education Specialist to support the student’s progress.  If the student meets all the independent study requirements, a CAHS transcript will be issued for completed coursework. * Non-A-G
