A Quarter Century of Online Excellence!

We have 25 years of experience providing highly interactive online AP® classes, with more than 1000 students enrolled in our classes during the last school year. We are proud of the academic community that has developed as homeschooled high school students connect with their bright, motivated classmates from all across our nation and even around the world. NOTE: Our classes are not available to public or private brick-and-mortar school students or to adults.

At Pennsylvania Homeschoolers we offer three kinds of courses:

  1. AP® Courses. The 2024-2025 school year will be our 27th year of offering Advanced Placement (AP) classes online to homeschooled students worldwide. All or our AP® courses fully meet the guidelines of the College Board's audit process and are listed in the College Board's AP ledger. To learn more about our classes, please click on "Our Courses" at the top of this page. Class reviews from past students and their parents are linked at the end of each course description.
  2. Honors Courses. During the 2024-2025 school year we will again be offering honors classes online to homeschooled students worldwide. These classes prepare students to participate in AP classes in the future.
  3. Summer Courses. In the summer of 2024 we will again be offering Summer Enrichment Online classes ranging from college application essay prep, to a class about Epic Poetry, to a Music History class on Art Songs, to STEM classes, and more. (You don't have to be homeschooled to take them.)

Our classes develop a community of scholars who interact through class postings, course-related projects and games, responding to one another's work, discussions, and much more. For student perspectives on our classes, watch these AP Student Panel Zoom sessions:

Statistics provided to us by the College Board show that almost 3/4 of our students earn top grades of "4" or "5" on the AP exams that they take:

  • 48% of those exams earned 5's ("Extremely qualified" - the equivalent to a college A+ or A)
  • 25% earned 4's ("Very qualified" - the equivalent of a college "A-")
  • 16% earned 3's ("Qualified" - the equivalent of a college "B")
  • 7% earned 2's ("Possibly qualified" - the equivalent of a college "C")
  • only 4% earned 1's ("No recommendation")

The following pie charts compare the scores of our students with those of all students who took AP exams in 2022. The pie chart on the left shows the distribution of the 1,066 scores reported for our students while the chart on the right shows the distribution of all 4,982,292 scores reported for all students by the College Board:

         

Word of mouth has helped our courses grow without a marketing campaign or corporate backing. We're even NCAA-core-course eligible for students seeking admission to Division I or II schools! 

In short, find out what makes hundreds of homeschooled students return to our courses year after year. We hope you join our class community!
