Our Educational Programs

NOTE: The prices below do not include the cost of textbooks. Textbooks must be purchased separately.

Traditional

kindergarTen - 12th grade

This program is the most popular of the two, because the student is studying at their home with a teacher assigned to them. The student will mail in a certain portion of their work every two weeks. The teacher grades it and then returns it to the student. The teacher will help them with courses and answer any questions they have. The teacher can be contacted via email, text or phone. We want students to do their very best in their school work, and earn high grades. Once the teacher grades the work, any work that is not “A” quality, the student will have a chance to correct it and bring their grade up. We cannot accept sloppy, “thrown together at the last minute” work, so students must take this program seriously. The main courses taught are English, Literature, Math, Science, and Social Studies / History. Electives are done in high school.

You must pass the colleges' entrance exams and follow their rules to enroll, but going on to college is what most of our students do after graduation. Colleges and universities welcome home school students!

Can I go at my own pace in this school?

We allow one year to complete a year of school. It can be done in 7-9 months, but we allow 12 months if needed. If you are on the Traditional Program, you will have to turn in a specific amount of work every two weeks. When you take a break from school (summer or other breaks), holidays, religious breaks, that will be the family’s decision, but there is a timeline of when you must have all work completed for that school year.

What do I do if I do not understand the work?

Parent is the Teacher Program - The parent is your first source to go to for clarification on a course. If the parent does not understand the curriculum, they can call our school and we will help them and then they will explain the subject to you.

Traditional Program - The student can contact our teachers via phone, email, or can send a text if the question is brief. FaceTime with a teacher can also be scheduled by appointment.

Can I join the Military after I have graduated from North Texas Academy?

Some branches of the military will take you without any college credit, and other branches want a few hours of college before you join. Talk to your recruiter to find out the latest policies on the military and home schooling.

Can I do one or two years in high school at North Texas Academy and then return to a public school if I want and will they accept my credits from North Texas Academy?

Per the Texas Education Agency website (TEA), “Most public schools have policies and procedures in place to assess the mastery level of courses that students in home schools have taken.”

If you are wanting to do this, attend high school a few years as a home school student and then return to a public school and finish your high school with them, we suggest you speak to the counselor at the public school to be sure there will be no complications with this. Every school district has their own rules, and we cannot speak for them. We do have high school students do this, occasionally, but it is best to go to the public school and ask them what their rules are for this situation.

I do not live in the United States. Can I enroll in this program?

We accept students from most countries, however, you must be fluent in English in order to do our program. All the curriculum is in English only.
