Make your own school schedule

Our online private elementary school fits your family’s lifestyle. Instead of being confined to a bell schedule dictated by others, families can design their own daily, weekly, and monthly schedules. This allows each family to personalize the time and place in which their student completes their schoolwork, and each child can learn at their own independent pace. Laurel Springs’ experienced teachers partner closely with families and students to help them design schedules that work best for each child.

Stay organized and on track

Students and families have access to online planning and progress tools that make it easy to stay organized throughout the school year. Student accounts contain assignment calendars, progress tracking tools, teacher feedback, and reminders help students build independence. Parents have access to a parent observer account, allowing them to see everything their student can see and keep informed every step of the way.

Choose your personal start date

Rolling admissions means each student can start school at any time of the year! This means that each family can choose the best time of year to engage in academic work while balancing other interests or needs, such as travel or personal interests.
