HOME STUDY WELCOME & FAQs
Home Study is a truly personalized program that meets the unique needs of each child and fosters an environment for success! Each student is able to develop at their own pace in a learning atmosphere that is customized to them. Home Study is ideal for parents who want to play an active role in their child's education. Teachers are responsible for designing, monitoring, and assessing the learning. Parents are responsible for the supervision and support of the learning. At JCS, we empower parents to become partners in their child's education and equip them to inspire their child's love of learning and excel academically.
EFs meet with their home school families throughout San Diego, Riverside (including Coachella Valley), and Orange County at a variety of locations including libraries, JCS Academies, local businesses, and parks.
"We strive to build a school that meets the needs and dreams of parents, students and teachers."

How Does Home Study Work for High School Students?
In addition to being assigned an Educational Facilitator (EF), High School students will also be assigned to a subject area teacher for core courses. These teachers, called Specialists, will assist in the assignment and evaluation of coursework, be available for consultation and tutoring during the semester, and are responsible for the final examinations, which must be taken in all core courses (math, English, science & social studies).
