I am looking for any and all online class options for my middle school student. I am not looking for a full time program, rather something that will help take the load off of me in certain subjects. I have searched endlessly for a thread listing available options, but I came up with nothing, hence I figured we could all benefit from this one. Here are the options I know about. Would you please add to my list? Thanks a million. Here goes. . . (prices reported are just what came up in a quick Google search). Any opinions stated are just based on my experience. If you have experiences, please share. Even the best program may not be a good fit for every family. ;) *Landry Academy- Live classes. So far my kids have taken two classes, attended a couple intensives, and have participated in the online workshops. We are fans. The trick to this one is purchasing the classes ahead of time. Honestly it is cheapest to buy classes during their Black Friday and after Christmas sale. Grades 4-12. Price per class (semester) ranges from $97-$300 depending on when you buy them) *Freedom Project Education- Grades K-12 live classes. Roughly $1600 for a full load or $360 for a single class (2 semesters). I noticed that they offered a 20% discount in March last year. *Currclick- K-12 depending on the subject. Price varies. They offer live classes and online modules. *The Great Books Academy/ Angelicum Academy- Price varies by the amount of subjects. They offer B1G1 half off for siblings. *Classical Academic Press- They offer Latin via an online platform, but not via a live teacher. I have a membership to this, but I found that we liked the DVDs better. They are now offering classes for students in 7th-12 (poetry, Logic). *Memoria Press- K-12, Classes roughly $249 per semester. *Veritas Press- $545 per class (year long) for live instruction. Self paced modules available. *Logos Press- $545 for a year long class in the core subjects and I spied some electives for $345 a year. *Lukion Project- $269 per semester *Minecraft Homeschool- Offers a variety of 6 week courses (history related) for $10-$15 per session. My kids LOVE this one. *Heritage Histories- $50 per family. Each model has various levels and uses living classic books as the spine. There is not a live classroom component, but the lessons and tests are completed online. *ATTUNEUP- writing courses for middle and high school students, Tuition is suggested at $40 per kid per module, roughly $175 per semester. However, they don't turn away people that can't afford this. Pay what you can. Live class. *Homeschool Book Study- $125 per semester per family. Middle and high school literature classes available. Classes meet for an hour each week via a live class. Optional essay grading service is available. *Fortuigence- Online writing classes for middle and high school (I couldn't really find the info on the middle school options). Online modules are $37 each or get a 21 lesson package for $147. and. . . Go! What options do you know about? :) Thanks!

Our math club director just sent out an invite to register for Areteem classes this summer. It looks like they offer camps and online courses, and are affiliated with universities like Georgetown University. Reputedly, they help students learn skills to prepare for contests like USA Computing Olympiad. Three of their alumni made of half of the U.S.A. team which won the 2015 International Mathematics Olympiad. Just leafing through their offerings, I was pretty impressed. They offer courses like: Discrete Math, Intro to Algorithms, Python Programming, AP Physics and Physics Olympiad, Math Challenge, etc. Has anyone taken their offerings? I'd be interested in hearing your opinions of their online courses and summer camps. Could this be a good accompaniment to AOPS, perhaps?

It's time to start outsourcing. Trying to stay a step or two ahead in every subject isn't working anymore. Spanish will be the first to go. Does anyone know of online classes that start in the spring semester? I'm only finding ones that have the fall semester as a prerequisite. It looks like CTY might have one, but I cannot find what days it is offered. The only information I can find says the teacher will send out the days of the classes a few days before the class starts. What?!? :confused1: Am I reading that incorrectly? Do people really sign up and pay $$$ without knowing when the classes meet? Any input on CTY Spanish or other possibilities for a spring session of Spanish would be wonderful!

What do you all pay for online courses? TIA!

I am interested in hearing suggestions for online classes for 7th and 8th graders. We have been doing Classical Conversations, but we have moved to a community that just started this year and most likely won't be offering Challenge classes A or B next year and I'm needing guidance for my junior high girls. I've read a few things about these classes and would like to hear feedback from those who have used them. Both my daughters love to read and my older child (in 8th grade next year) is very good an independent work and very responsible when the expectations are clear and above grade level in Language arts and at grade level in math. My younger daughter is a dreamer who loves animals and reading, also above grade level in reading and slightly below level in math, but less independent. My husband is in school and at home during the day, doing classes online, and I work nights as a nurse 3 days a week. Which of these classes would work well with our situation? I really desire a classical education for our girls but I'm having trouble being organized enough to make it happen and believe that we need to outsource some things. My husband and I have a lot of time to work with the kids, but not necessarily all during traditional school hours. Thank you in advance for any advice and insights.
