Achieve excellence in education as you pursue your dreams.

Laurel Springs has long been the school of choice for children who seek flexibility and a college prep experience as they pursue their outside talents and interests.  Our courses are asynchronous, meaning that students do not all have to attend sessions at the same time.  Students are free to schedule their days and weeks in the best way to achieve all of their goals.

Athletes

Most college athletic programs are regulated by the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA), an organization with rules and regulations on eligibility, recruiting, and financial aid. Colleges and universities are members of a division according to the size and scope of their athletic programs. Laurel Springs can help with academic planning for students who wish to pursue athletics at Division I or II colleges, as most of our courses are NCAA-approved. 

Not all online high schools have NCAA-approved courses, due to the high academic expectations associated with NCAA approval. Laurel Springs has a variety of resources to educate students about NCAA procedures. Please contact our School Counseling Department to learn more about NCAA eligibility.

Performers

More than any other online school, Laurel Springs is known for working with students who are professional actors and performers.  Many of our alumni have gone on to become household names in the fields of acting, dance and music. 

“The teachers at Laurel Springs are always helpful and encouraging. Trying to stay on track with school and work in a very demanding industry has been made much easier by the flexible and supportive staff at Laurel Springs. I love Laurel Springs so much that I am happy to say I am continuing through high school. Thank you, Laurel Springs.”

We work with students, their parents, advisors, and tutors to ensure that our students receive a quality college prep education while pursuing their dreams and ambitions.  In addition to all of the normal flexibility that Laurel Springs offers, many performers take advantage of our Personal Project Portfolio elective to synthesize their professional experiences with topics they are studying in school.
