Academic Excellence
Your children’s education should not only be Christian in philosophy and content, but academically superior. We believe that it is only possible to honor God when we insist on high standards in our academic program. Neither should we accept mediocrity in any area of life.
John W. Gardner, US Secretary of Health, Education,
and Welfare from 1965–1968, said,
“The society which scorns excellence in plumbing as a humble activity and tolerates shoddiness in philosophy because it is an exalted activity will have neither good plumbing nor good philosophy... neither its pipes nor its theories will hold water.”
The CLASS program offers academic excellence for the serious home schooler. Students who complete our K–12 program are well-prepared for the world of work or post-secondary studies.
Rather than a loose collection of “easy A” courses, the CLASS curriculum demands diligent work and attention to detail. Although many tests contain multiple-choice questions, students are expected to respond to short answer and essay questions as well. Beginning in the 7th grade, students are required to complete two (2) book reports each year as part of their English/grammar/literature curriculum. Students who are enrolled for all four years of high school can normally expect to complete two separate research papers which require library work, an outline, a bibliography, and careful citation of sources in the text.
CLASS graduates have been granted numerous scholarships and have been accepted into many prestigious colleges, universities, and military academies.

“Thank you for sending us copies of Tom’s records. On the basis of academic merit, Tom was offered a Leachner Fellowship in the amount of $1,250 per year, renewable for four years, for a total of $5,000. He has accepted the scholarship. We plan to offer a Merit Scholarship to him in the amount of $500 per year, renewable for four years, for a total of $2,000. You should receive notice of the offer directly from the National Merit Scholarship Corporation in Evanston, Illinois.”

“We want to tell you we find the materials so terrific and refreshing we wish we had such available when we were in school. It has been a real thrill to our hearts to see our children desiring to learn. Our two older children have shown an almost complete turnaround in their attitudes-towards us and towards learning. We praise the Lord. We are so happy we found this before it was too late.”
From Virginia Beach, VA

Thank you all for providing the materials so parents as home educators can prepare their children for God’s plan. May God continue to give you the grace for this ministry.”
