High School Registration

Yes, registration for admitted students is on a first-come, first-served basis. We have a limited number of seats in all courses, and we do not reserve seats for returning students.

Yes. If needed, you can add, swap, or remove courses from your child’s schedule until September 20 for the fall semester and January 17 for the winter semester.  However, course changes may require review and approval from our Registrar.

Students who wish to take only 2-3 classes can enroll in our Homeschool Enrichment (HSE) program. Requirements and benefits for this program differ from full-time enrollment. Please see our How to Apply & Enroll page for more details. 

Please see our graduation requirements page for a detailed list. Williamsburg Academy of Colorado high school students who meet these requirements can graduate with an accredited high school diploma.

Some ambitious students want to pursue their diploma in three high school years instead of four. If your student would like to pursue this path, please contact our Academic Counselor to build a plan, then we'll help you register accordingly. 

In this case, you may enroll your student in a more advanced math or writing course. If they have already earned official high school credit for a recommended course, they should work with our Academic Counselor to decide which course to take instead. 

Core classes at Williamsburg Academy of Colorado include all Leadership, Language Arts, Social Studies (a.k.a. Humanities), Science, and Math courses.

Honors Classes: Yes, our live-online Social Studies, Writing & Rhetoric, Literature, High School Math, and Pre-Calculus courses are offered in both Honors and Classic versions. (Self-paced courses are only available in the Classic format.)

Students in Classic and Honors courses meet in the same live class sessions but Honors students complete roughly 30% more work. You can select either the Classic or Honors version when you enroll in SIS.

AP Classes: We currently offer AP U.S. Government & Politics (Winter semester). This course is available to students in grades 11 and 12.

Many of our online high school courses are offered in both “live” and “self-paced” formats. Most Fine Arts, PE, and Electives are offered exclusively in the self-paced format. The following courses are available in the self-paced format: 

• All high school Science courses (except Astronomy)
• All high school Language Arts courses
• All high school Leadership courses (except Student Body Leadership)
• All high school Social Studies courses
• Electives

Whenever possible, we recommend taking live-online courses over self-paced courses for the best academic experience and results. Self-paced courses should be selected only if necessary.

We offer high school Independent Studies courses in Fine Arts, P.E., and Electives. To learn which Independent Studies courses to select for your student, please contact your student's academic counselor.

Our Independent Studies Fine Arts, 3D Design: Modeling, Animation, & Printing, and Digital Art & Graphic Design course can be counted as Fine Arts or Electives credit. Please work with our Academic Counselor to determine what is best for your student.

No, we do not offer summer classes. If your student needs to take courses over the summer to earn high school credit for graduation, please see our FAQ page for details on credit recovery or contact our Academic Counselor.

Once your student is registered, all that’s left is preparing for the first day of school! To help with this, we highly encourage you to review our How to Prepare for School page and Parent Orientation videos. We’ll also email you and your student with information about student orientation assignments they will need to complete in Canvas (our online learning management system).
