If you’re looking for accredited courses in grades 6-12 for the 2023-2024 school year, consider American School, a leader in distance education since 1897.
American School students may enroll in full-year programs which can lead to them earning American School’s accredited high school diploma, or they may enroll in individual subjects to enrich an existing homeschool program. Either way, American School’s affordable tuition always includes all study materials, grading and access to the Online Student Center, where students and parents can retrieve academic records and receive assistance.
Courses are available in print and online formats in these subject areas:
  • English
  • Math
  • Science
  • Social Studies
  • Business, Career and Technical Education
  • Fine Arts
  • World Languages
American School’s General High School Program is perfect for those who wish to earn a diploma and join the workforce or attend a community college, while American School’s College Preparatory Program is perfect for those who plan to attend a four-year college or university. Both programs consist of five units of credit per year in grades 9-12 for a total of 20 units of credit in a full high school program.
In either high school program, students can choose between print or online courses, which ensures that they will learn in the course delivery method that is best for them. Curriculum comes from leading textbook publishers and curriculum providers, and all course materials are written to specific standards for a particular subject or grade level.
If your child is not ready for high school just yet, American School offers a Middle School Program for students in grades 6-8. The program consists of five units of credit per year for a total of 15 units of credit in the entire middle school program.
Just like the high school program, students in the middle school program can choose between print or online courses. Curriculum again comes from leading textbook publishers and curriculum providers, and all course materials are written to specific standards for a particular subject or grade level.
If your family already has a homeschool program but is looking to make it even better, all American School courses are available for enrollment on an individual basis. Enrolling in individual subjects allows students to receive the same high-quality American School curriculum and instruction as students in full-year programs and can enrich an existing homeschool program or serve as a bridge to enrolling in American School full-year programs in the future.
No matter which program is best for your family, students can enroll anytime and work at their own pace as they study. Monthly payment plans are available for families whose students are enrolled in full-year programs. American School is also known for caring student service, including personalized feedback on every exam, and credibility, which includes accreditation by MSA-CESS, Ai and NCPSA as well as recognition by the Illinois State Board of Education.
American School serves students in all 50 states and more than 65 countries around the world. We would love to add you, a family member or a friend to the more than 3 million students we have served since our founding in 1897.
