Honoring Each Child’s Individual Style of Learning
Laurel Springs School is a fully accredited private online school for students in kindergarten through twelfth grade, offering challenging academic programs that honor each child’s individual learning style and educational needs.
Our Mission
At Laurel Springs School, we believe that each child is a unique human being with personal interests, special talents, and a unique learning style. We know that children receive optimum benefit from an educational process that values them as individuals and provides a personalized approach to learning. We encourage their innate enthusiasm for learning and their dreams.
Our school is designed for the college preparatory student who wishes to grow and excel academically and personally, while maintaining a flexible schedule. Our personalized approach is competency-based and asynchronous, meaning students have the opportunity to move faster or slower through the material, depending on their individual skills and knowledge. This approach allows students the ability to adapt their schedules to accommodate their other interests.
With college preparatory academics, including Advanced Placement (AP), Honors, and the Gifted and Talented Academy, Laurel Springs has an outstanding record of placing its graduates into the selective colleges and universities of their choice in the U.S. and throughout the world.
2016 marked the twenty-fifth anniversary of Laurel Springs School, which was founded in 1991 by Marilyn Mosley Gordanier and a dedicated group of educators. For over twenty-five years, Laurel Springs has been focused on honoring each child’s unique style of learning, supporting students to achieve their academic goals, and fostering their personal interests and talents. In 1994, Laurel Springs earned the distinction of being named one of the first schools in the United States to successfully develop an online curriculum.
