FAQS

Got questions? We’ve got answers.

  • What are ages and stages?

    Students are grouped together by ages and skills in some subjects while working with their grade in others. It allows students to move up or down so we're challenging them and setting them up for success.  


    English and Math since they are studied for mastery are divided into traditional grade levels. 


     Classical education often integrates subjects, showing how various disciplines are interconnected. This interdisciplinary approach can lead to a more comprehensive understanding of the world.

  • Are there scholarships?

    "Additional Financial Helps" are listed on the main Catholic Co-op Homeschool Hybrid page

  • What if my student isn't ready for a classical education?

    Since this educational model puts the tools of learning into the hands of the student, most students, even struggling students do very well with this model.


    Additionally, the teachers who offer differentiated classrooms for a variety of learners find that struggling learners do especially well with this educational model of the course of their elementary and high school careers.

  • Can you handle struggling learners?

    There are some students who learn best one-on-one or in a more controlled environment. We cannot promise to meet the needs of every child. However, several of our teachers differentiate the learning experience in their classroom and are able to teach a variety of those who learn differently. We'd love to include your honors student, struggling learner, or child who learns differently and we'll make every effort we can to teach them. 


    Please look at the class descriptions to find those teachers who are comfortable with a "differentiated class".
