Sierra Academics is an advanced educational program available to home school, charter school,
and private school students who are looking to push themselves academically and morally. Sierra Academics partners
with educational institutions to better prepare their students for life and college. Sierra Academics is not a place,
but rather a system of educating young people that has proven itself extremely effective.
Classes meet
Mon-Fri. 8:45 AM-2:00 PM.
As much as possible, students are taught at their own level and course grades are
assigned based primarily upon student improvement. (i.e. How much they learn vs. how gifted they are.)
ALL classes are cumulative. (Students have to
remember
what they've learned!)
The first year a high school
student is with us is by far the most difficult year in our program.
The format at Sierra Academics is dynamic and rigorous and courses
are taught as a continuum, or single story, which grows and deepens as the students progress.
Students:
Do you want to know what you can do when you set your mind to it?
Do you
want a better chance at the life God
intended for you?
Do you want to go to college boldly and with
confidence?
Do you want a life that better allows you to
impact those around you
for Christ?
Do you want to learn how to learn, so that you are
no longer limited by instructors and dependant on others for what you know?
If so, then come!
Be a part of something exciting—and difficult. We are offering you an opportunity to focus
your life while many of those around you are being distracted and damaged; an opportunity to taste the joy of a disciplined
life—a life that glorifies God and sets you free. Your high school years are critical for setting
you up for a blessed life, and God has put it upon our hearts to help you use this time to identify your academic and spiritual
strengths and weaknesses, and to help ‘Train you up in the way you should go’ while many of your peers are simply
shuffling off to places where they take lots of classes, but all too often learn very little.
You will work hard,
laugh (a lot), perhaps cry a little, and even want to quit at times, but the sense of accomplishment and success will keep
you coming back for more.
Pray about it, and then decide.
