Middle School Courses
A Classical Approach
Our middle school courses cover the main topics of a classical education, as well as include some courses for high school credit which are available to current eighth graders through twelfth grade. Our extra curricular art and music courses are also available for all grades in middle and high school (6-12), and take place on Thursdays. If you see a course listed here that is also on the high school page, it is the same course. Most courses are one day a week, with the exception of Math and Spanish which are better practiced daily, thus have a two-day per week class period.
All prices listed are monthly. Certain life skills courses carry such an important value to the development of a leader that we have made them required courses to attend our academy, though only one is necessary per 2 semesters. If you have already taken these courses, you may let us know. You will notice the prices of these courses are significantly reduced because the heart of Lamplighter Academy is truly to equip students with that specific valuable information for their future. All required courses are marked with an asterisk and only one is necessary per 2 semesters. We hope you will enjoy our course selection. If you are in need of a course that we are not currently offering, please contact us and we will see if we can add it to our lineup for the next school year.
