NorthStar Academy
NorthStar Academy is the first Online Christian School to receive its accreditation in November 2005 from AdvancED through the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools. This Accreditation through AdvancED, the largest accreditation group, and the fact that Northstar Academy was the first online Christian School to earn their accreditation, is a major reason why they made the top of our list. Northstar Academy is also among the first group of online schools to be accredited by the Association of Christian Schools International (ACSI) this year. ASCI just begin accrediting online schools for the first time.
Teacher Access
Northstar Academy, as an online high school, uses the Internet in order to link students with one another, as well as with certified teachers to help assist in instructions and receive grading. Teachers post their assignments, lead group discussions, evaluate students, just like in a traditional brick and mortar school system. The completed assignments and tests are submitted back to the teacher for grading. The teacher then reviews the work with the student. One on one student to teacher time is important in our decisions in ranking schools. Anytime a school provides a credentialed, quality teacher that can interact one on one with the student, it is a big plus!
