Online classes (World History and Biblical Thinking) are 100% online and accessible from home via computer.
TLC classes are generally small and sometimes fill quickly. If a class is full, we will indicate it here. You may still register for a full class; if you do so, your student will be placed on a waiting list, and you will be notified (i) if an opening becomes available or (ii) if an additional section of that subject is offered. If an additional section of a class is offered, we will indicate it here and notify anyone on a waiting list for that class.
Bear in mind that many courses (e.g., Physics, Composition/Literature I and II, Physical Science, British and American Literature, U.S. Government, U.S. History, etc.) are normally offered every other year. Thus, if a class you need is not offered this fall, it will probably be offered the following year
