One question I get asked quite frequently is from parents asking if SKrafty can be used for High School.
The answer is absolutely, yes!
When we started SKrafty 5 years ago my kiddos were all from Kindergarten/1st grade through the 5th grade. We have added classes to fit them as they have grown so SKrafty class offerings have grown right with them. We have plenty of high school courses to choose from! Many high school students tend to enjoy live class interaction and learn well from a teacher introducing the topics, etc so our live classes are really popular with them. We have awesome teachers who care about their students and a wonderful online community as well. If you’d like to get your high schooler involved in the SKrafty community check out the options below for online courses. We have several self paced courses as well as a live track starting this summer.
Self Paced High School Courses on SKrafty:
We have literature add-on courses, High School History using The Mystery of History by Linda Lacour Hobar, Self paced Science courses like Biology, Chemistry, and others using Apologia and Berean Builders curriculum as well as Algebra, Geometry and more! You’ll also find some fun electives like Personal Finance and Entrepreneurship using Dave Ramsey’s curriculum, Study Skills, and even classes for helping with goal setting, etc. Head HERE to learn more about our self paced classes available for High Schoolers on SKrafty!

What About Minecraft?
You may be aware that many (most?) of our courses include Minecraft activities. This is a huge plus for those students who love playing the game, and the Minecraft activities really help to increase subject learning. However, if your kiddo doesn’t enjoy it, the classes stand alone and are completely adequate even without the Minecraft projects.
