Independent Study Program
Eaton Academy custom designs SACS accredited Independent Study programs to help
individual students take the high school courses they need for graduation. These
courses are available at times that fit the student's schedule and can be taken in
a one-to-one setting with an instructor, in our Mentor Program, or via in home sessions.
Tuition varies according to the type of program the student selects. Students may
enroll in a single class, or they may create a complete high school program with
Independent Study. These programs are accredited by: the Southern Association of
Colleges and Schools (SACS), the Commission on International and Trans-Regional Accreditation
(CITA), and the Georgia Accrediting Commission (GAC).
Highlights:
- Courses for credit are available in all disciplines:
English, Mathematics, Science, Social Studies, the Arts, and Foreign Language.
- The structured, individualized sessions are scheduled at the student's convenience:
during the day, after school, in the evening, and on weekends.
- The student-to teacher ratio is one-to-one, with highly qualified instructors.
Small group classes are also available in the Mentor Program.
- The college prep curriculum is supported by an extensive choice of resources
and follows an open enrollment policy.
- Academic tutoring for students enrolled in other schools is available in all
disciplines on an hourly basis.
