AcademyQ:    Is THE ROCK ACADEMY Accredited?

A:    Accreditation means that we pay a large fee for an independent agency of our choice to verify that we are meeting the goals and standards that we set for our school. This in turn means a higher tuition.  In addition, many agencies require schools to have at least 150 students to be accredited.  Many have the wrong idea about Accreditation. Not being accredited does NOT mean that your child will not be accepted into a public school.  Additionally, it is NOT required for your child to attend an accredited school to receive credits and attend college.  In fact, there are some public schools that are not accredited.

 

Q:    Does the DVD Program mean my child will watch TV all day?

A:    No.  The DVD program is designed to work in concert with the on-site teacher.  The average time of DVD instruction is 3 hours/day presented in short 15-30 minute intervals depending on the grade level.  During this time your child is learning from Master Teachers (some of the best teachers in their field).  The remainder of the time is traditional one-on-one time with the their teacher and classroom interaction.  The DVD program uses modern technology toprovide a wonderful interactive learning experience for the students.

 

Q:    Are the teachers certified?

A:    All of our classes are taught by certified Master Teachers.  Our on-site teachers are hired with prayerful consideration based on Christian Character, experience working with children in a classroom and their commitment to Christian Education.

 

Q:    Do you give the FCAT?

A:    No. Our students take the SAT (Stanford Achievement Test). The SAT is nationally recognized and gives a comparison of how our students are performing on a national basis.
