Sierra Academics is not a business and isn’t run as such. Our
tuition and fee schedule are as low as we can make them and still keep the doors open.
We consider teaching your child to be the highest of honors and we take the responsibility extremely seriously because
so much of who, and what, your child becomes is dramatically affected by their productivity during their high
school years.
If we were a business, we would raise our tuition, listen attentively to every complaint, lower our academic and
behavioral standards… and we would have hundreds of students. We don't have hundreds of students.
Our academic system works…
Many of our students
have successfully passed AP tests in such wide ranging topics as: History, English, Environmental Science, Government and Economics.
In Fact, we have even had three 8th-graders pass the AP Biology exam which no school around us even comes close
to. These AP exams are currently the highest standard in pre-collegiate academics and, aside from helping
students compete for scholarships, students can also receive college credits while attendung high school.
Several of our students graduate as Sophomores in college due to the credit received on AP tests while attending
our program.
Sierra Academics is not a perfect program—far from it. But we believe
it is the best program—a unique program—for unique families who are willing to do what it takes to prepare
their child. It is also an honest program. If your child has character flaws, they will
be made aware of them—clearly and gently at first and then, if necessary, more bluntly—and they will
be encouraged to lean on Christ and make the necessary changes.
Your student will be given
the opportunity to grow academically and spiritually, and mature into a more confident individual a better undestanding
of who they are and what God would have of them. We have also seen that our program will
academically and spiritually prepare your student for college better than any other program available. If
they listen…
