Core Curriculum Academy (CoreHS)

Replacing the traditional brick and mortar model, Core HS provides excellent teachers to students in a variety of locations across the country by offering live online classes (a mix of students from all over the country may be enrolled in the same class; thus allowing students to interact with others from varying backgrounds and environments).Following a traditional daily, weekly, and semester schedule, CoreHS offers all courses necessary for students to graduate with the appropriate endorsements and courses to get into colleges of their choice.CoreHS promotes various settings such as current public high school classrooms, public libraries, and other public buildings as meeting places where small groups of students may take courses and collaborate with other students from around the country (home school students will be able to access courses from home if desired.)Required testing is reduced to include 1-2 yearly achievement tests for the purpose of maintaining the highest possible standards for teaching. SAT/ACT preparation courses are available on an elective basis.CoreHS requires students to participate in team sports or other physical development activities such as dance, marching band, etc., at their local high schools. If these opportunities are not available, students should privately enroll in other areas of physical fitness such as league baseball, football, or soccer. Students will be encouraged to expand their learning, with gymnastics, dance classes, or ice skating classes and the like.In addition, CoreHS encourages students to privately select excellent elective courses such as speech, debate, art, robotics, drama, chorus, orchestra, or concert band. With proof of participation, students enrolled in private lessons in theatre arts, music, and fine arts shall receive elective academic for this requirement.CoreHS also supports innovation and creativity opportunities for students to join a variety of science and technology clubs.
