Frequently Asked Questions

  • No problem! We have services that help you every step of the way. Request a free consultation at this link.

  • Archway accepts school choice scholarships. Some are reimbursable and some are direct pay. Visit the scholarship tab to learn more.

  • Of course! We are homeschoolers after all! We provide a recommended grade level based on the material. If you need help selecting classes for your students we offer free academic consultations.

  • Your student can take as little or as many classes as needed. We have scheduled them to not conflict with other classes they may require within their level.

  • Yes! Our online platform has a parent login to access student grades and communicate with the teachers. You can select the settings to be alerted if assignments are missing or fall below a specified grade level. Parents are copied on all communication with the student. You can print report cards and progress reports.

  • Our remote classes are held live from anywhere you are and are a lot like live in-person classes! Students have live instructors, classmates, discussions, and class activities just like they would in an in-person class.

  • Your student needs a computer or device with a strong internet connection, headphones with a microphone for participation in class, a camera that is required to be on during class, and a quiet distraction-free location. At Archway we treat our live online classes just like an in-person classroom which fosters community and relationship through authenticity.

  • No problem. We have students that join us from other states and families that travel internationally. All classes are taught in Eastern Standard Time between the hours of 10am and 3pm. Just adjust for your time zone and join us live!

  • If a student can’t attend a live class on any particular week you can excuse their absence and they will still have access to the assignments for the week.

  • Our math classes are the only class that “requires” a placement test. If a parent needs help in selecting classes or levels we offer a consultation and review to assist.

  • Archway is a 30 week program consisting of two 15 week semesters that run from September to early December and resumes from early January to to the end of April. We take one week off for Thanksgiving, three weeks off a Christmas/New Years, and one week off at Spring break for a healthy calendar year. See our calendar for exact dates. Note: some elective classes are one semester.

  • We offer grades, report cards, and transcript support. However, if you do not want your student to be responsible for turning in assignments and/or receiving grades, you can select the “audit” option which gives your student access to the live classes, with participation and homework instruction, but no assignments are deliverable or graded by the instructor.

  • Parent involvement is truly able to be tailored to the level your student requires. At the very least you need to provide the technology required including stable wifi and the books required for class. Many students attend and complete their work completely independently. Some require more parent support. Each student is unique.

    Unless listed on the course description page, you are not required to purchase the curriculum answer keys. However, as a homeschool family that wants to work and learn alongside your student, you may choose to purchase the teacher's manuals/answer keys. We ask that you do not give the student access to the answer keys.

  • Full enrollment provides grading and audit does not but please check out our Enrollment Page for specific information about each enrollment type. Parents can choose different enrollment types for each course to fit their homeschool needs.

  • Any materials required for a course are listed on the course description page with live links to purchase. You can purchase from any vendor you choose but please ensure you purchase the accurate versions/editions listed by the instructor.

  • We provide school t-shirts and many students love wearing them in class, but they are not required. A full t-shirt is fine but any inappropriate clothing, logos, or backgrounds will prompt the teacher to remove the student from the class until it can be addressed. We ask students to not wear hats or hoodies to class.

  • Our core live classes are held on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays between 10am and 3pm. We have a math lab and some extra electives on Mondays. We have no live classes on Fridays. Your schedule will depend solely on what classes you take. All classes are held in Eastern Standard time. See our class schedules tab for more information.

  • Homeschoolers have graduation ceremonies, prom and homecoming dances just like traditional schools. We partner with organizations to make sure our students attend any of these events they desire.

  • Archway Education is a homeschool academic enrichment program and not a traditional school. While we provide everything you need to complete courses required for graduation and we supply report cards and transcript support, you will add them to your students final high school transcripts upon completion of your homeschool program. We will guide you all the way!

  • Our students have succeeded at a all levels of post education. From public to private colleges as well as entrepreneurship, ministry, and trades. We continue to work with our graduates as needed for recommendations, evaluations and support.
