Crew: Year at a Glance

In our Crew program, community is at the heart of everything we do. Whether your student is enrolled in our Online Courses or following an Individualized Program, our goal is for every student to navigate the same key topics at the same time.

By staying "in sync," our students can fully engage in our weekly Crew classes, benefit from shared instruction, and grow alongside their peers in a collaborative environment.

How We Stay Together: Zoom classes & Class GoogleDoc

Our weekly Zoom classes are the "heartbeat" of the Crew experience. These sessions tackle specific content and provide the direct instruction needed to move students through the online course.

For our Individualized Families: To help you align your chosen curriculum with these live sessions, Crew teachers provide a weekly update in a Class Google Doc. This document acts as your roadmap, highlighting the specific content being addressed in the online course each week.

Even if you are using a different textbook or program at home, you can use the Class GoogleDoc to identify the matching sections in your own resources. By following this weekly guide, your student will be prepared to dive into the activities and discussions during our Crew classes, ensuring they feel confident and connected to the cohort’s progress.

How to Use This Page

  • For Online Students: Simply follow your course schedule—you are already aligned!

  • For Individualized Families: Review the "Year at a Glance" timelines below. Work with your student to identify the units in your chosen curriculum that match these topics. Aim to cover these subjects during the months indicated to ensure your student is ready for the weekly Crew discussions.

Please note- novel studies will vary year to year.

Parental Support in the Individualized Path

Parents, your role is vital in the Individualized program as the facilitators of this curriculum alignment. Because you are selecting the specific resources for your child, we ask that you take the lead in mapping your home curriculum to the Crew timelines.

By checking the Class Google Doc provided by the teachers each week, you can help your student identify the corresponding chapters or modules in your chosen books that align with what the class is addressing. This ensures that when they log into Zoom, they are ready for the instruction—to learn and engage with the content. Helping your student prepare this way ensures they won't feel "lost" during our weekly Crew instructions. Whether the class is discussing the Industrial Revolution or the properties of light, your student will have the background knowledge to contribute to the conversation, benefit from the shared learning experience, and truly shine!

We are better together. Let's make this a year of synchronized growth and discovery!
