Calvert Homeschool will provide three months of its award-winning homeschool curriculum free of charge to parents and guardians in the wake of the coronavirus school closures. The engaging curriculum, for grades 3-12, offers a comprehensive toolkit to reduce the learning loss many children will suffer while away from school.
“Many parents across the country have been thrust into a new normal—working from home while simultaneously juggling their children’s education,” said Eric Dalton, President of Weld North Education Consumer Group, the parent company of Calvert Homeschool. “The reality is that pre-planned, in-depth schedules and lesson planning is out of reach for many families. Our hope is to relieve parents’ burdens and give them the tools they need to prevent their child from falling behind in their studies during this unprecedented time.”
In addition to offering videos and interactive exercises, Calvert offers placement tests free of charge. With great uncertainty surrounding standardized testing across the country, the placement tests will allow parents and students to benchmark growth and determine opportunities for improvement.
The curriculum is accessible to all, despite tremendous demand. Thousands of families have accessed the Calvert Homeschool curriculum in the last few days. The company is prepared to meet the high demand for vital education materials across the country. More information and instructions for obtaining the curriculum can be found at https://www.calverthomeschool.com/.
In addition to three free months of Calvert Homeschool, the company is offering access to their fully accredited Calvert Academy—with certified teacher support—at a discount. Calvert Academy is now available for $249 per month or $695 to finish the school year, compared to the standard price of around $2,800 per school year. Students enrolled in Calvert Academy will be eligible for credit transfer.
