Core Benefits:

Southeast Academy provides 1st-12th grade students nationwide with an initial placement tool for a customized educational plan; 5-6 subject curriculum depending on grade level; course counselor; technical support; school communications; record keeping & reporting; semester report cards; annual achievement testing that is required in some states, and of course an accredited homeschool program. The placement tool is not a grade level admissions test, but a tool to see if there are any gaps that need repaired. In addition to these basics, 3rd-8th grades have additional services depending on which program is selected. High school students have access to all services available including teacher support.

Telephone consultations are always available for any academic, procedural, or record-keeping questions. Our records management includes taking care of the transfer of records from your previous school. Our Achievement testing can be done directly through our school. Most states that require testing allow this instead of testing at a local public school. Students are issued a school identification number for taking college entrance exams, financial aid, and college applications. Southeast Academy also provides upon request official school transcripts, graduation verification for employment applications, and G.P.A. verification for auto insurance. There is no extra cost for our high school honors program. Our Kindergarten is a learning to read program.

Curriculum Format:

Our accredited homeschool program has an easy to use curriculum with a Christian worldview to meet your need without missing gaps! PreK through 2nd grade use a colorful fun booklet format. 3rd-8th grades can choose between an online or combination online and booklet format for varying 3rd-8th grade needs. High school students use our award winning online structure with our “Elite” service, which frees up more time for parents! Thousands of multimedia features including digital tutors are available in our 3rd-12th grade online curriculum. 

 

Financial Value:

Southeast Academy is one of the best financial values when considering services provided! Southeast Academy is lower than most comparable programs for services included! There are also tuition payment options to fit your family`s budget. Read some of our parents’ feedback to see why thousands of parents choose Southeast Academy!

Family Registration Fee and Tuition: A single family registration fee covers all siblings registered at the same time. This annual fee is usually waived in future years if the annual Student Update Form is submitted during an announced window of time. There are ten payments if choosing the monthly tuition payment option. There are some financial savings if choosing annual or semester tuition payments. In some cases, students may begin a second year of school in the same school year, but there is an additional tuition cost. Please contact us for an estimated cost. If a student completes the year’s schoolwork in less than ten months, the full year’s tuition is still required to cover tuition and other expenses. Southeast Academy does offer a referral incentive that can greatly reduce tuition. Once enrolled, contact us to signup of for our referral incentive.

Accredited Homeschool Program:

Accredited Homeschool Program: Southeast Academy is not just a curriculum system that calls themselves a school! Southeast Academy is accredited by one of the five regional accrediting associations in the United States that are recognized by most state governments. We are accredited for all grade levels, not just some grades! We believe peer review from outside our organization is important. An educational team visits our school to evaluate all areas. It is basically an audit of educational and organizational practices, structure, procedures, and tools. Any school changes between visits must be reported to the accrediting body. Some accrediting associations do not visit the school, but regional accrediting associations do. Southeast Academy’s accredited homeschool program can be checked for status at AdvancEd’s Find Accredited Schools link (at the top). We also have full accreditation with NAPS, which can be checked on the National Association of Private Schools school list.

Grade Level Overview:

The PreK through 2nd Grades:

This accredited homeschool program uses colorful booklet curricula. PreK and the learning to read Kindergarten programs have additional materials included with the booklets. The booklet structure is easy to use. Along with simple instructions, you will have access to an academic adviser via email and telephone. Normally a specific number of pages in each subject are set as a daily goal for the student. Periodic tests are mailed to Southeast Academy for record keeping. Most students will score very well with our mastery-based structure. For 1st-2nd grade students, parents can view grades and progress online. More details can be found on the 1st-2nd By Grade page.

3rd-8th Grades:

We offer these grade levels four different accredited homeschool programs:

1. Parent-teacher Led using online curriculum.
2. Parent-teacher Led using a combination of online and booklet subjects.
3. Distinctive Service using online curriculum with Southeast Academy teachers scoring student work.
4. Elite Service using online curriculum with academic concept help and scoring from Southeast Academy teachers.

3rd-8th Grade Online:

The Parent-teacher Led Online program allows for the convenience and benefits of Southeast Academy’s award-winning internet-based structure without the added cost of teacher grading. However, a large portion of student work is automatically computer scored, which saves parents time and promptly corrects student thinking while the concept is fresh in the mind. Thousands of multimedia features and digital tutors are used in Southeast Academy’s online system. Parents are responsible for scoring some answers that cannot be automatically scored by the system. Parent-teacher Led programs are Southeast Academy’s lowest cost programs at $135 per month or $125 per month if paying annually. That is about $6 per school day for an accredited private school enrollment.

3rd-8th Grade Combo:

The Parent-Teacher Led Combo program uses online and booklet subjects. Math, Language, and Science use the online format mentioned above, while History/Geography and Bible subjects use a booklet format. The combo format helps transition students from an entirely paper-based curriculum to the benefits of online curriculum. Students will also have more handwriting experience during the year with the combo program. The combination of formats will offer students some non-computer time for a portion of each day where a computer and/or internet is not required. Each of the booklet subjects are made up of approximately 10 colorful booklets that are mailed out to the parent throughout the year. Parents have a little more involvement, because the two booklet subjects do not have automatic computerized scoring. Booklets have a unit test where the completed test is mailed to Southeast Academy for scoring and record keeping.

3rd-8th Grade Distinctive Service:

Distinctive Service additionally provides Southeast Academy teacher scoring of all online work that cannot be automatically scored by our system. For example, essay and full-sentence answers.

3rd-8th Grade Elite Service:

Elite Service provides all the benefits of the Distinctive Service program, but additionally provides academic concept help whenever the student needs it via the built-in message center and email. This is Southeast Academy’s best program! Parents are freed up to focus more on encouragement and motivation.

All 3rd-8th Grade Programs:

Tuition options and grade level scope and sequences can be found on the appropriate By Grade page.

High School:

High school is an accredited homeschool program that uses our online system with our most comprehensive Elite service to ensure the best success. There are thousands of multimedia features and digital tutors in the online system. The Elite service provides concept help for these upper grade level subjects via the built-in message center and email. It also provides teacher scoring of all online work that cannot be automatically scored by our system. For example, essay and full-sentence answers. Six subjects rather than five are included in high school.  A full list of benefits and structure can be found on the By Grade High School page.
