Curriculum Options

Our parent-led Homeschool Program offers a personalized and engaging experience using your choice of two print-based curriculums while remaining within the safety net of Enlightium Academy.

Choosing between BJU Press and Alpha Omega Publications (AOP) depends on aligning your child's learning style with your educational philosophy and the time you can dedicate to direct instruction. Both curricula offer exceptional Christian-based education, but each has its own strengths.

Educational Philosophy

Christian-based curriculum

Integrates a biblical worldview but is known for its more traditional approach to education.

Often requires more direct instruction

from parents or educators, especially at younger grade levels where foundational skills are being established. As a result, parents are actively involved in managing the day-to-day organization of classes, planning lessons, and delivering instruction.

Curriculum Format

Traditional textbooks and video lessons

  • Video Lessons
  • Workbooks
Subject Matter and Approach

Known for its structured approach and rigorous academic standards

Often favored by families seeking a traditional classroom-like experience. By emulating the structure of conventional schooling, it offers a familiar and challenging environment that prepares students for future academic endeavors.

Parental Involvement

Typically requires more hands-on involvement from parents, especially in the lower grades, due to its traditional teaching methods. This hands-on involvement allows parents to tailor the learning experience to their student’s needs, advancing at a pace that suits the student's learning style and abilities.

Parental Involvement

Offers robust support from the Enlightium team, including detailed lesson plans and teaching aids, which can be especially helpful for parents new to homeschooling.
