Private Online High School
College & Career Prep — Grades 9 through 12
Preparing Students for What's Next
Ignite Learning Academy's online high school curriculum serves students in grades 9–12. High school is an important time in a student's life, and we play an important role by guiding them through these years.
By developing and emphasizing students' critical thinking, discipline, and student mastery, students will grow mentally, emotionally, and academically as they prepare for college and university.
Building Independence & Ownership
During the high school years, the role of the parent/coach is significantly reduced compared to elementary and middle school responsibilities. Students in high school are encouraged to advocate for themselves, contact teachers directly, and take ownership of their learning—abundantly preparing them for college and their future career.
Students continue to engage in Math, Language Arts, History, and Science, but are also afforded the opportunity to enroll in more specialized learning pathways, elective courses, and foreign languages.
Daily commitment: High school students should plan to spend approximately 3.5 – 5 hours completing their schoolwork each day.
Live Classes & Clubs
High school students are invited to attend live classes throughout the week to extend their learning in the online curriculum and work alongside their teachers and peers as they conduct experiments, engage in academic conversation, work on projects, and expand their knowledge. Live classes are hosted in Zoom so students have a chance to get to know one another and build friendships.
Students are also invited to engage in a number of virtual clubs including Student Government (STUGO), science, drawing, cooking, painting, National Honor Society, and more.
Ahead of Class — Career-Specific Pathways
Career Clusters allow students to 'try on' a career before fully committing to that course of study in college. Many pathways prepare students to complete industry-recognized certifications after successful completion.
