The NFC Academy Kindergarten Daily Lesson Planner lays out each day's work to get you through the year without concern about the pace. Your NFC Academy Daily Lesson Planner is your guide to use so you stay on schedule. It lays out all work that is done in each subject for each day of your school year.
When a student’s school year is set it includes the holidays typical to a school setting. Major holidays include Thanksgiving, Christmas break, Spring Break and for those who work in the summer, a summer break. There are other one day holidays like Labor Day, Veterans Day, MLK Day, Good Friday, and Memorial Day. All of these are a part of the calendar so if your family wants to take a break during these holidays you can and still be on schedule to finish as you plan. Of course, you can also have homeschool during those days if you select to do so. |

annual standardized testing available
|
Some states require some form of annual standardized testing for homeschool students. Typically, a test must be called a norm referenced test and not one similar to the various state created tests.
To enable our families to meet this requirement and to help us evaluate our academic program we make the Stanford Achievement Test Online available for our students. The test given in April each year is online for grades 3-11 and for our K-2nd grade we use the booklet tests for students. The most recent test results for our elementary students is in the image showing the percentile scores of our students who took the test. The median percentile score on this test is at the 50th percentile and you can see our students score well above that average. |
