If you want the personal connection of an excellent brick-and-mortar classroom combined with the flexibility of online learning for your student, choose this option.

In many live courses, we offer both a Classic and Honors format. Students in both versions meet in the same live class sessions, but students in Honors courses have about 30% more readings and assignments, including projects that are more challenging. Students are welcome to enroll in whichever version fits best for them and can switch within the first twenty-one days of the semester. Honors courses are not available in the self-paced format.
If your student works well independently or needs more flexibility to work around other
activities, our self-paced courses are an ideal option and provide a richer, more personal experience than many other asynchronous online courses. Self-paced courses include the following benefits:
In high school Math, Fine Arts, PE, and Electives, we offer independent courses so students can earn academic credit for learning from a third-party curriculum provider. Some students prefer alternative math programs; others put in long hours practicing musical instruments, competing on an athletic team, or participating in internships. Students can earn credit for these and other activities by enrolling in an Independent Studies course, provided they fulfill the course requirements (see the above course links for full details).
Why This Class
Does your student have a flair for fashion? Are they continually dressing up or decorating and redecorating rooms around your home? As a parent of a creative student, you want to nurture their artistic gifts. This course helps them better connect with their creativity and investigate career options in fashion and interior design.
Students in this self-paced course work independently with the assistance of a mentor and interact with other students in online discussions. They learn the basics of color and design and test their skills through hands-on projects. In the process, they discover the tools of various trades within the fashion and design worlds, including sewing, technology, and environmental design. They also explore the history of fashion and learn how to present their work as aspiring professionals in the industry.
By completing this course, students gain awareness of the foundational principles and tools that will help them pursue a career in fashion or interior design. They also get a head-start on creating a competitive portfolio of their own.
