Junior High and High School
​Scope and Sequence

As we build out a class offering that will support, encourage and help homeschooling families, we realize that in the upper grades, school choices require a little more strategic planning. 

As such, we have come up with a general guideline of what we anticipate our upper level class offerings will be from year to year. Certainly these choices are subject to teacher availability, interest, age breakdown of the student body, etc., but it's a good place to start!

Students are broken into three age divisions: 7th/8th grades, 9th/10th grades, and 11th/12th grades. In each subject, two classes will alternate years such that a student will cover both classes in each grade level. 

History

We are not currently offering a history class to the junior high level, allowing families to finish out any history cycles they began in the early elementary years. For high school, we will offer American History as a full-year course, and U.S. Government and Economics as an additional elective for the younger high school students. For older students, we will offer Western Civilization II (Modernity).
Students will be fine to take Western Civ II without having taking the first course.

The following year, we plan to offer Ancient History for the younger high school students and Western Civilization I for the older students.

In addition, this year we will have a Worldview class that will encourage students to apply their Christian worldview
​ to the current events and trends of thoughts studied in their history courses.

Composition and Literature

For composition and literature at the high school level, we will offer a combined class that will loosely co-ordinate to the history topics being studied that year. While the history subjects are on a two year rotation, a student could be in the high school comp/lit class for four years, so the teacher will provide a different syllabus year to year. We are working to offer a junior high level comp and lit class as well.

Science

Our science courses will start at the junior high level with General Science and Physical Science alternating years. At the 9th/10th grade level, students will alternate between Biology and Chemistry. At the upper grades, we may offer Anatomy and Physiology, Physics, or another science that the families of enrolled students agree upon with the teacher.
