Families with students in 3 - 12 grades have the opportunity to participate in a grade level course load in its entirety or select courses à la carte through both a synchronous (live educationalists) and asynchronous (recorded) format. Recognizing the need for schedule flexibility for families, courses are scheduled around a university model with Monday/Wednesday or Tuesday/Thursday sequences. Fridays remain open for independent study and one-on-one tutoring opportunities. K5 - 2nd grade students will have a set time to complete math, English Language Arts, and Bible with the educationalists. The other courses are self-paced through the BJU video platfom. The educatinoalist is there to support the learning throughout the process.
