Cornerstone School!
"Large-size schools may have a football team and a gymnasium, but that does not
guarantee a great education!"
Students work at their pace, independent of other students. Gifted students are not held back! Harder concepts need not be rushed!
The majority of instruction is one-on-one
A wonderful blend of computer-based and textbook-based curriculum
10:1 Student : Teacher ratio
Auditory, visual, and kinesthetic (experiential) learning are integrated into the learning process - regular field trips, extra activities, and a lecture class designed to put pleasure into learning
Students that have had a difficult time socially in a large school environment have flourished in our healthy "family-style" atmosphere.
Cornerstone School offers a self-paced and individualized education for Kindergarten thru 12th grade. Alpha Omega Publications®, a revolutionary leader in Christian schooling and home school is our primary curriculum provider.
On top of AOP as a curriculum provider, we use three other phenomenal curricula: Teaching Textbooks for math, Rosetta Stone for Spanish, and ACE for Kindergarten and lower level math and word building!
Students in grades 4-12 are each given their own office space with a computer. Our younger students learn in a traditional fashion of phonics, flash cards, one-on-one teaching, and, of course, lots of fun. Starting part-time in 3rd grade, students begin the dynamic, computer-based schooling experience of Switched-On Schoolhouse from Alpha Omega Publications.
We desire to set new standards in schooling, shaping the educational process in a way that embraces the genius of each child.
We are producing students capable of transforming their surroundings, teaching themselves whatever task is necessary, and focusing their efforts in areas of strength.
We maintain a very aggressive teacher-to-student ratio - between 1:8 and 1:10. Over 90% of instruction is one-on-one. Our graduating students have averaged around 4 points above the national average on the ACT.
