Plano Home School Academy

A Distance Learning Program for Home-Schoolers 

Frequently Asked Questions  

In this program, can I go at my own pace?

Not exactly. You can go faster than the required length of time, but you can’t move slowly and take your time. Your will know exactly what you are supposed to do in each course during a two week interval. You will be required to do a specific amount of work in that time period. If you are in grades 4-8, your study time will be 4-5 hours each day, 5 days a week. 

How will I know what I am expected to do on each subject?

You will receive a check sheet (an assignment sheet) for each subject. It will show you exactly what is due and when (date) it is due. Everything is well organized and very simple to understand. If you have any questions, you may call and we will be happy to help. 

What can I do if I really don’t understand the work? Can I get help?

Yes. You may call and a teacher will help you. We want you to do well in school and be successful. We want to help you. 

What if the work is too difficult?

For Plano Home School Academy students, the curriculum will be sent to the child on the grade level that he is in if he is on grade level. If the child is working below grade level in some courses, then the curriculum can be ordered to fit the student’s needs. 

Can I do this extension program and later return to a public or private school?

Private schools have various rules and policies. We have found that for the most part, private schools will accept these courses and they will work with the student who has attended a school such as this. 

Public schools also have various rules and policies. Most public schools will give you credit for courses taken from our program. Some public schools simply want to test the student to see what level they are on and will decide from that point whether to accept and give credit for a course taken or not. 

If you are considering returning to a public school, you should get in touch with the school and let them know what you are planning to do. The public school will need to know that we are an ACCREDITED private school. Find out, from the school, what will occur and if they will accept the credits. 

I don’t live in the U.S.A. Can I apply for this school?

Plano Home School Academy currently only accepts applications from students in the U.S.A. and Canada. (The exception to this rule is that if you are a U.S. or Canadian citizen temporarily living out of the country, and have plans to return.) 

Is this an “accredited” school?

Yes, Plano Home School Academy is accredited with The National Accreditation Agency.

What’s the rule in this school if I were to use drugs?

You will be expelled! The same goes for any criminal activity, such as committing a felony. You will be expelled! We have a no tolerance policy about any drug use and/or criminal activity.
