Leadership Program
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. Our signature live online courses are the heart of the Williamsburg program, led by expert mentors who create a deep sense of community between students. Live courses include the following benefits:
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
It’s not always easy to be—or parent—a middle school student. This tumultuous phase of changing hormones, relationships, and circumstances can be as challenging for you as a parent as it is for your student. This course is designed to help students be more aware of, and start taking responsibility for, their choices to ease the tension of this time of life.
Students in this course learn how humility and integrity can help them experience more meaningful connections with the people around them and take charge of their own educational and life paths. They complete projects that help them appreciate their unique qualities and relate better to others from different walks of life.
By the end of this course, students are less affected by the actions of those around them and more able to forgive and move forward. They are aware of their strengths and weaknesses and more at peace with their experience of life.
