We've made a couple of changes to our class list and schedule. An instructor originally planning to teach will be unable to do so, necessitating some adjustments. Another instructor will take the American History class, using the same textbook. The Marine Biology class is cancelled, but we will be offering high school Chemistry instead.
We are still in need of an instructor for a one-semester high school Health class. If you are interested, or know of someone who may be, please contact us.
The instructor for Chemistry is also teaching the middle school history class, and due to the new schedule, it would be so helpful if another mom would take or co-teach the America the Beautiful class. If you can help with this, please contact us.
Updated Registration packets with the new class information and revised schedule have been emailed. Note the time changes for the American History and Chemistry classes.
