The Need
The high school years play an important role in a student's future. Many parents are seeking a way to optimize their child's academic success in high school while continuing to build upon the spiritual foundation laid during the elementary years. While home educating in the elementary years was comparatively simple, the high school years are increasingly complex.
Our Purpose
CHESS has designed a comprehensive program to deliver an excellent foundation to your high school student, plus meet your needs as a concerned parent. We have many years of experience in successfully educating students during their high school time. We have earned a solid reputation in the education community for academics. In addition, we place a strong emphasis on developing futures leaders for families, business, government and our community.
Our Philosophy
The CHESS Diploma Program provides a structured guide of basic requirements and achievable goals while allowing parents to individualize the scope and sequence of their student’s education. The goal of the Diploma Program is to support the parents, challenge the students, and substantiate the skills that the student has acquired. The CHESS Diploma Program provides students with a verification of their work in a private school transcript.
The Diploma Program offers two different tracks, a general program and an honors program. Each program is designed to challenge students at different academic and spiritual levels. To understand which program is right for your student, contact the CHESS administrator.
Your Success
Since 1992, CHESS has been helping students succeed during their high school years. Over 300 have graduated with over 75% going on to a college or university. The CHESS Diploma Program diploma and transcript has been accepted everywhere it has been presented.
However, our greatest joy has been to see students grow in godly character and their depth of relationship with the Lord Jesus Christ.
Our Diploma Program has given parents confidence to continue educating their children at home through the high school years. Here are a few parents' and students' perspectives on their experience:
“We appreciate your willingness to work with us and offer the flexibility you have.”
– Sandy, Greeley, CO
“I really appreciate you continuing to help me and support my ventures”
– Abby, student, Greeley, CO
“I don’t know where to begin to thank you for all you’ve done. I am pretty sure we would not have been able to home school all the way through high school without CHESS’s diploma program. Your direction, encouragement, and influence on our son caused him to reach higher and accomplish more academically and spiritually than he would have ever been able to do without you.”
– Michelle, Bailey, CO
