We use modern technology to prepare all types of middle school students to succeed in the 21st century
We take full advantage of the scalability of online technology to deliver a broader, more relevant array of options in engaging and varied ways. That includes using videos and interactive activities as well as more traditional study techniques. At Sterling Academy, one course credit is equivalent to two semesters of study in a subject. Our school offers flexible grade-level completion timelines based on students’ needs.
Your student cannot get a great education without top-quality learning materials. For our core courses, we proudly use Edgenuity online curriculum, a program used in all 50 states by both public and private schools. Core curriculum for the K-5 includes language arts, math, science, and social studies.
We take full advantage of online technology to deliver more diverse, more relevant and more engaging learning opportunities specifically designed to interest and motivate K-5 students. Courses may include video, audio and interactive activities as well as more traditional reading and writing assignments.
And it’s not just our curriculum that sets Sterling Academy apart. It’s also our team of certified, experienced and student-focused teachers. These are people who are top achievers in their fields, academically and in the “real” world. They not only know the material, they have that special characteristic so important for students – a sincere desire to help your child learn.
Unlike attending a traditional K-5 school, students are never at the mercy of overcrowded classrooms or rigid daily schedules that make it tough to interact in a meaningful way with teachers.Although our K-5 students only have to take the minimum 4 classes each year, our tuition covers up to 6 classes. That means students may take one or two electives in addition to their core classes. That could be technology or some other fun, interesting, relevant class – art, PE/health, music – we offer an amazing selection of elective classes you’d be hard-pressed to find at a traditional K-5 school. Most of our elective courses are from Edgenuity.
You child may attend Sterling Academy as a full-time middle school student. We also welcome part-time students who wish to take electives or other courses their school does not offer. Because we are a regionally accredited school, you can easily transfer the credits you earn back to your regular school.
Whether you want to register your child as a full- or part-time student, you may enroll them with Sterling Academy at any time and they can begin their studies. It just takes a few minutes to start the ball rolling on their new academic future.
