We're pleased to present our courses to you! There are many of them, so we've broken the list down several different ways for you in the links below. Our registration dates are available on our TPS News pages. Currently registered families receive email notification of new courses and registration dates. Other families can sign up for our newsletter to receive this same information.

The Potter's School offers a complete curriculum of high quality on-line junior and senior high courses taught from a biblical worldview. Since our intent is to partner with parents in the home education process, the courses are primarily independent study programs that are guided and evaluated by the teacher, and supervised at home by the parents. Live classroom sessions are used to highlight significant material and to afford students an opportunity to interact with one another and with the instructor. All of our courses emphasize personalized timely feedback and evaluation. For more information about a course, please click the course name link or the teacher name link. For other specific questions concerning a course, please email the instructor from the links on our Teachers page. For general questions about the school, its policies or procedures, please thoroughly review our web site then contact the administrator with any additional questions.

Choosing your classes. We recommend you review our Curriculum, Scope and Sequence information, to gain a good background for making informed class selections. From there, you will decide to either take the TPS Classical program, or customize your own from the hundreds of courses we offer. If you customize your own, we provide you a helpful suggested sequence for each area of study. Please take advantage of this information and these tools, to plan for your student's success in preparation in college and career. If you don't see a course you want, we probably have it or something like it, so please ask.

Scheduling your classes. The class schedule is listed below each course. Each course runs for the full school year unless the course title specifically indicates "First Semester" or "Second Semester". Each class meets for 90 minutes each week. Once you receive a seat in a class section, that is the section you must attend every week. All times are U.S. Eastern Time (ET), and The Potter's School does observe Daylight Savings Time. We do have nighttime classes, to support overseas time zones, so please pay close attention to the class time when registering. Before you jump into the schedule, you might find it helpful to download the Course Planner and print the pages appropriate for your time zone.

Getting the sections you prefer. You may register into an open seat, or onto the wait list of a "Full" section. A "Closed" section is full, and its wait list is full, so will not be able to register into a "Closed" section. If a section you prefer is wait-listed for a particular course, you may sign up for one or more wait-listed sections to try to get a seat if it becomes available. We record the date and time of your request, and generally offer wait-listed seats in the order the requests are received. However, we recommend that you also sign up for an open section that you will make work if the wait-listed section never becomes available to you. If we can offer you a wait-listed seat, we will drop the other seat after you accept the wait-listed one.

Placement tests and teacher approval. Many courses require a placement test to be submitted with registration. When you register for a course please download the current placement test for that course, if applicable, and send it to that class's teacher as soon as possible. We cannot approve you for a class until the teacher has evaluated any applicable placement test.

Courses. There is a complete listing of all our courses linked at the bottom of this page. However, since we have so many courses, we also provide you various shorter lists compiled by category or target grade.The minimum and maximum "target" grades are an aid to facilitate families searching for courses, not a prerequisite or assumption of student readiness for a particular course. Sections in which overseas students have priority are marked with "S." Sections in which parents may enroll are marked with "P."

We have sorted our course lists several ways for you, to make your search easier.
