Scholars Online is a nonprofit educational corporation designed to foster classical Christian education through instruction, guidance, and community using emergent communication technologies. Its founders have been offering online courses to homeschoolers, private and public school students, college students, and independent scholars since 1996. While homeschooled high school students are our primary focus, our courses are open to all who meet the requirements and are willing to participate according to our terms of service.
Faith-based Education in a Classical Christian Tradition...
All teachers at Scholars Online confess the Trinitarian Christian faith of the Nicene Creed; beyond that, however, the faculty is diverse and reflects a range of theological traditions and scriptural interpretation.
No statement of faith is required of any student, though we expect all students to remain courteous and civil about the beliefs of others. Any student who can meet the prerequisites of a course is welcome, without regard to race, creed, color, age, or current educational affiliation.
...Adapted to the Students' Needs
We cater to students throughout the United States and elsewhere in the world, and accordingly appreciate the need to be flexible to meet local situations and requirements. We use a mix of course delivery methods and interactive technologies, chosing those best suited to course content and the instructor's teaching style. Math and modern language sessions use audio and whiteboard sessions hosted on WizIQ. Our history, literature, and writing courses use our own Scholars Online Chat software, which provides full HTML webpage presentation capability, without audio. Students enter chats, receive and post assignments, take quizzes, and review grades using their personal homepages in our dedicated MOODLE system.
Registration for the 2010/2011 Academic Year is still open!
Scholars Online offers a full range of college preparatory courses in modern languages, classical languages, history, literature, mathematics, science, and composition:
Students who start with our introductory programs during their junior high school years may take up to six years of Latin or Greek, five years of mathematics, six years of literature, six years of science, and five years of composition. Students in our advanced courses regularly perform well on Advanced Placement and SAT tests, and are accepted into some of the best colleges in the country (see our Supporting College-Bound Students link for a list of colleges accepting Scholars Online students).
Check our 2010 Course Listing for courses, times, teachers, and tuition charges.
Academic year classes will start the week of August 31 or September 7, depending on the teacher's schedule.
