“Previously, I had some misconceptions and doubts in my faith, but this course has taught me not to be afraid of it. Instead I should face them and uncover why I have such doubts by looking through the Bible or even talking to my parents. It has given me new strength especially throughout this rather troubling year with all the darkness in the world. Basically, apologetics has taught me not only how to defend my faith, but that I am and always will be a child of God.”

Science
“I’ve really appreciated the approach to Physics that this course takes. It breaks down each large and complex Physics topic into manageable chunks. The homework is challenging, but not overwhelming. The class lectures have been by far my favorite part of this course. My favorite part of the course was the class time, where concepts are explained in detail and in understandable ways. I would highly recommend this course because it gave me a deeper understanding of how many things (gravity, acceleration, electricity, magnets, etc.) work and function in the world around us, ultimately leaving me in awe of God’s awesome creativity.”

Art, TPS
“I had a great time this year in all my classes. Art was definitely my favorite class, but I really enjoyed every single one of my classes this year. The teachers are all amazing; so understanding and willing do above and beyond to help their students. Although the workload was pretty stiff, my teachers laid it out in a way that was manageable, so I was able to keep up. I really enjoyed TPS this year and I can’t wait for the coming school year!”

Computer Programming
“I believe that this course is a great way to start someone on their adventure into programming. The different programming challenges throughout the course will puzzle the student into using the information learned in new and inventive ways. TPS’s Introduction to Computer Programming is a fascinating course.”

High Scholars
“There are so many things I could say to influence others to take this class. This course really focuses on strengthening the foundations and thoughts of its students. In the English section, I got to read so many interesting short stories, poems, and essays and discuss their meanings and themes with my fellow classmates. In History, I received objective lessons on historical events and movements. I even got to discuss and debate my own ideas on subjects like Globalization, Marxism, Imperialism, and much more. In the Art History section, I got to learn about different cultures and their ideas through their art. I got to see different ways of looking at history or topics just through different pieces of art. All of the teachers are well educated in their studies, friendly and loving to their students, and focus on teaching their students how to think and discuss. This class has brought me much joy, and I hope that you strongly consider taking it.”

High Scholars
“I really cannot praise High Scholars highly enough. The teachers are fun, engaging, knowledgeable, and passionate about what they teach. I never knew I could learn so much while still having fun. With this class meeting four days a week, there is more of an opportunity to grow closer as a class, and I am so grateful for the friends I have made. Rather than studying different eras of history as compartmentalized sections of time, I have learned how all of history interconnects, giving me a much fuller understanding of the world of the past. Although this course is a challenge and a large time commitment, it has transformed my writing and helped me reach academic heights that I never knew I could.”
