Our full service school courses meet live and online once per week for 90 minutes although math classes meet twice per week for 60 minutes per session. Students then work asynchronously between class sessions using our learning management system to submit work, projects, quizzes, or tests. Teachers handle providing instruction, making assignments, and evaluating work. A final grade verification is provided at the end of the course term. All classes are recorded in case a student needs to miss class.
We offer classes in a wide array of subject areas ranging from art to science, language arts to math, and technology to history. We even offer foreign languages. For those looking for unique courses, we have several including thematic literature courses, film, art, and psychology. Our course catalog is a great place to explore options.
Choosing the right classes and grade levels can be challenging. Use the Excelsior Classes Grade Level Pathways guide to map out the best academic journey for your student.
Excelsior Classes is committed to providing an encouraging learning environment for all students while also meeting educational goals and providing educational experiences typical for traditional grade levels.
Most courses do not require a passing placement test. However:
Math and foreign language courses offer placement tests, which are available on their respective course description pages. These tools provide valuable feedback to help parents determine the appropriate level.
In other subjects, teachers assess placement through writing samples or discussions about a student’s prior experience.
Prerequisites and suggested grade ranges are listed on each course page and should be reviewed carefully prior to enrollment.
If you are considering enrolling a student significantly outside the recommended age range, you must contact registration@excelsiorclasses.com before proceeding. Final enrollment in these cases is subject to approval from both the teacher and administration, based on academic and social readiness.
Teachers can be contacted directly via the email provided on each course page.
For general placement advice or help connecting with the right teacher, email registration@excelsiorclasses.com.
Our guidance is designed to support your student’s success. While parents ultimately choose which courses to enroll in, disregarding placement recommendations may lead to frustration, poor performance, or the need for additional tutoring support.
If you need additional counsel, please contact the teacher of the specific course or write to registration@excelsiorclasses.com.
