Our one day program meets Mondays 9am-3pm at CHEC Academy and students take English and Math, to include levels from Singapore Math 5, 6 & Prealgebra. Our JH follows the 32-week CHEC calendar designed for students to have opportunities to explore, learn, and grow, in a school like setting while allowing ample time to meet personal homeschool goals.
CHEC Experiences
Field Trips
As part of the CHEC Experience program, junior high students participate in one field trip each semester. These hands-on experiences are designed to extend learning beyond the classroom, allowing students to explore new environments, connect classroom lessons to the real world, and engage in meaningful, experiential learning opportunities that support their academic and personal growth.
Class Trips
Starting in 5th grade, students at CHEC embark on overnight class trips as part of their CHEC Experiences program, marking an exciting milestone in their learning journey. These trips allow students to explore new environments, build independence, and strengthen relationships with their peers outside the classroom. Overnight trips in particular hold special value — they encourage teamwork, self-reliance, and confidence, while deepening students’ sense of community and curiosity about the world around them. Each trip becomes a meaningful extension of the classroom, blending adventure with personal growth.

Singapore Math
Singapore Math program for Levels 5 and 6 provides a comprehensive and engaging approach to mastering math concepts. Designed to challenge and develop critical thinking, students will explore topics such as fractions, decimals, percentages, ratios, geometry, and pre-algebra. With a focus on problem-solving, these courses use the renowned CPA (Concrete-Pictorial-Abstract) approach to build a strong mathematical foundation, ensuring students are prepared for higher-level math courses.
Prealgebra
Elayn Martin-Gay’s student-centric approach is woven seamlessly throughout her texts and MyMathLab for School courses, giving students the optimal amount of support through effective video resources, an accessible writing style, and study skills support built into the program.
Students attend in person class on Mondays, and virtual class with their same math teacher on Wednesday morning. Virtual office hour also available for extra student support during the week.

Junior High English
Learning Latin is a great way to study grammar once a student has the basics of English grammar down. This portion of their Junior High English class will also prepare them for taking their high school foreign languages.
Curriculum: Latin - Getting Started with Latin, IEW - Modern World History-Based Writing Lesson
Students attend in person class on Mondays, and virtual class with their same math teacher on Wednesday mornings. Virtual office hour also available for extra student support during the week.
Study Hall
A proctored study hall gives students a chance to complete some of their CHEC homework or out of CHEC work during their school time in order to allow more time after school for extracurriculars and sports. At this age, students tend to prefer working independently alongside their peers and are motivated to complete more work in less time.
