High School
Click here for an informational brochure on our Ninth Grade.
Demand for a high school has led Sophia Academy to begin adding upper school grades, starting with a ninth grade in the fall of 2012.
Ninth grade will include the same personalized education tailored to meet student needs that is found in grades K-8, and it will share the school's SACS-SAIS accreditation. The small class size and extracurricular opportunities, including fine arts and sports, as well as a catered lunch, high school uniforms, and a private lounge are just some of the exciting high school elements students are already buzzing about.
Sophia Academy ninth graders will have the opportunity to engage in seminar-style, college-prepatory classes where they will discuss and analyze with their peers under the supervision of a certified and experienced high school educator. They will be afforded incredible once-in-a-lifetime opportunities, such an international culture exchange/study abroad program and a foreign mission trip.
A portion of the curriculum will be taught virtually during the school day under teacher supervision through an affiliation with an established online learning program. The online component allows the student access to the most experienced teachers in many areas, as well as a personalized pace of learning.
Ninth graders will be able to access all textbooks online through the school's partnership with the Georgia Institute of Technology, and all students will be required to use a laptop in the classroom. The school will offer tutorial for extra help throughout the week at no additional cost, and all students will have access to Assistive Technology - devices and aids which improve student performance.
