What is a Hybrid School?

Flexibility, Faith, and Family

Never heard of a hybrid school? You're not alone! At Light Christian Academy, our hybrid model blends the best of traditional classroom learning with the flexibility of homeschooling. It's an innovative approach that's perfect for families seeking a Christ-centered education with a personalized touch. Here's what it's all about—and why families making the transition from public school love it.

How It Works

• On-Campus Learning (2 days/week): Students attend classes led by passionate teachers, enjoying interactive lessons, group projects, and a faith-filled community.
• Homeschooling (3 days/week): Parents guide their children at home using our comprehensive lesson plans, tailoring the experience to their family's needs.

This balance gives students structure and support while offering families the freedom to customize their schedule.

Transitioning from Public School

Switching from public school to our hybrid model is a refreshing change. Here's how it differs:

• Christ-Centered Focus: Every subject is taught from a biblical worldview, unlike the secular approach of public schools.
• Smaller Classes: On-campus days feature intimate settings for more individual attention.
• Flexibility: With only two days on campus, families gain time for extracurriculars, travel, or family bonding.
• Parent Partnership: You're in the driver's seat at home, with all the tools you need to succeed.

The Parent's Role

Parents are key partners in our hybrid model. While teachers lead on-campus instruction, parents:

• Facilitate learning on homeschool days with our provided resources.
• Maintain transcripts and academic records, with guidance from the academy.
• Create a nurturing, faith-based environment at home.

To simplify record-keeping, we recommend using an Umbrella Academy like Home Life Academy, which helps families meet state requirements and manage documentation.

Why Families Love It

• Flexibility: The hybrid schedule fits busy lifestyles, giving families room to breathe.
• Christ-Centered Education: Faith is woven into every lesson, helping students grow closer to God.
• Personalized Learning: Smaller classes and parent involvement ensure students get the attention they deserve.
• Community: Families connect with like-minded believers, building lasting relationships.

At Light Christian Academy, our hybrid model is more than an education—it's a way to shine God's light through learning and family.
