In high school math curriculum, students may choose from many different courses. Each math course focuses on a specific topic, such as Algebra, Geometry, Trigonometry, Pre-Calculus, Calculus, and Statistics.We also offers Advanced Placement math courses which have been reviewed and approved by the College Board.

English Language Arts

High school language arts courses build on the literary components that students learn in elementary and middle school courses and dives into more complex pieces of literature while furthering students’ developing writing skills. Westudents read, assess, and make conclusions for increasingly complex texts—both fiction and non-fiction—written by authors with diverse backgrounds. Comparing cultures through literary work expands the understanding of other subjects and the world as a whole.

Our high school language arts curriculum includes classes in English with emphasis in both American and British Literature. We also offer advanced placement courses in English Language and Composition and English Literature and Composition.

High School Science

The high school science curriculum involves five subject areas: physical science, biology, chemistry, physics, and environmental science. We offer various scholastic levels for most of these subjects, such as general, honors, and Advanced Placement.

Our science courses instruct students to apply scientific principles, concepts, and methodologies as they relate to the physical world. We see the value in laboratory science, because it allows students to see the concepts that they are learning come to life. Each lesson will involve a video experiment in addition to the lectures and coursework.

Upon completion of our science curriculum, students will have a deep understanding of scientific methods and theories.

High School History & Social Studies

History and social studies gives students the opportunity to learn from past events and apply these lessons to their present and future lives. Learning about world history is essential to understanding where we come from as a society. Our U.S. Government course will prepare students to be engaged citizens that perform their civic duties.

In addition to history and government, Economics, Geography, Personal Finance, and Psychology are all fascinating subjects that introduce various concepts that can be applied to everyday life to our students. These subjects are also a great way for students to explore interests and potential career opportunities.

High School Fine Arts

The students can explore their interest in the fine arts in any of our three courses: Music Appreciation, AP Music Theory, AP Studio Art – Drawing. Music Appreciation addresses the history of music and popular styles from eras dating back to the Renaissance. AP Music Theory provides students with a foundation of the elements of musical composition. Lastly, AP Studio Art teaches students the foundation of artistic drawing while giving them a creative outlet.

High School Health

Health and wellness are important for all children, but it becomes increasingly important as children begin to think for themselves more and more. Acellus Academy’s high school health curriculum teaches students about physical fitness, the human body, diseases, drugs and medicines, adolescence, first aid, hygiene, health care, and more!

High School Foreign Languages

We offers French, German, and Spanish at the high school level to allow students to learn a second language. Our high school foreign language curriculum focuses on vocabulary, numbers, greetings, sentence structure, and basic grammar. We hope that our foreign language courses get each of our students excited about further pursuing, and eventually mastering, the language of their choosing.

High School STEM and Programming

Coding is quickly becoming part of the modern world’s literacy. We offers courses from the Acellus STEM-10 initiative. Engineered to significantly increase the number of students prepared for high-tech careers right out of high school, the program begins at basic level, expanding each year in sophistication and complexity.

High School Career and Technical Education

High school is a wonderful time to pursue subject areas that could lead to career opportunities. We provides a long list of courses that will introduce a variety of industries. These include, but are not limited to, agriculture, business, HVAC, and medicine.

Since technical and business fields are expanding, it is important that young students have the opportunity to learn about these subjects before they enter college or the workforce. When given this opportunity, students are better able to determine if they have any interest in exploring one of these industries as their future career.

All of these courses are designed to give students a clear picture of what will be expected from professionals who choose these career paths. To build these classes, we have worked with industry professionals to determine proper coursework.

With these classes, we hope that students are inspired to continue studying their selected field.
