Spring Courses
Registration for discussion courses is now open!
Please click on the day/time links below each course description to register. You can also visit this page to register for courses organized chronologically.
To ease the registration load for our website, there will be a 2-day roll out:
- Discussion/Language courses will be open for registration beginning on October 15 at 9 AM. (This includes courses of all levels that are not titled as a writing or grammar course.)
- Writing/Grammar courses will be open for registration beginning on October 16 at 9 AM.
The Spring 2026 Schedule is now available for viewing and printing.
Calendar
- Course Commencement Week: January 20 - 23
- Final Course Week: May 5 - 8
Note: No class for Easter Break: Holy Thursday through the following Wednesday (April 2-8). Classes will resume Thursday, April 9.
Before registering: please take a moment to read through the Quick Facts & Information of the Program prior to registering your child for a course. It will help you to understand our goals and expectations.
Eligibility requirements can also be found under Program Information.
Class days correspond to the schedule for both practice sessions and for normal classes. The term is 14 weeks in duration plus the practice session week (although Language & Math courses are 28 weeks). Course fees will be found associated with each course. Age levels are assigned to courses to describe the required maturity standard for the course; please feel free to contact Nicole Noster (nicole@wisdomhomeschooling.com) to inquire if the age requirement can be waived for a course you believe would be a good fit for your child.
Please note that some courses have prerequisites and these should be considered when planning your course schedule. Some courses which fill up will have another section offered if sufficient interest is shown from a growing waiting list. Do register for the waiting list of a full course if you are interested in another section being made available.
Courses marked A and B are identical in content; these letters name different sections occurring at different times. Courses marked 1 and 2 signify courses with similar themes, but different content. They do not necessarily require that one be taken before the other.
For more information on the technical requirements, cancellation policy, course completion requirements, and other details, please read our Program Information. For further inquiry, please contact the Program Manager, Nicole Noster, at nicole@wisdomhomeschooling.com.
*All successful registrations will receive a confirmation email within 24 hours. If you do not see this email come through, please email Nicole immediately.*
