Christian Liberty Press (along with our homeschool and day-school academies) are educational ministries of the Church of Christian Liberty. The Church of Christian Liberty is an independent Reformed church in the Chicago suburb of Arlington Heights. It is similar in doctrine and practice to a conservative Presbyterian church, but is independent of any denominational affiliation. It has adopted the Westminster Confession of Faith and Catechisms as its statement of faith.
What is the difference between Curriculum Kits, and the CLASS and Family Administration Plans offered through CLH?
Curriculum kits are product purchases through Christian Liberty Press (CLP). They are a "box set" of a standard grade level curricula, containing all of the textbooks and support materials for student and teacher. A small number of options are available for most kits, and they are priced at a discount compared to purchasing all materials à la carte. Students using a curriculum kit are not enrolled in our academy, and all grading and record keeping are done by the family.
In contrast, both administration plans are actual enrollments into the Christian Liberty Homeschools academy (CLH). The difference between the CLASS and Family Administration Plans is mostly record keeping. The CLASS Administration Plan provides you with all the materials necessary to complete a full grade level of education, including: textbooks/workbooks, tests, keys, and guidance materials necessary to organize and run your school. It also provides grading for all required tests and select daily work, issues official report cards quarterly, maintains academic records, provides transcripts, and issues a diploma for grades K, 8, and 12. In addition, CLH provides assistance with additional documents, such as a certificate of enrollment, work permit, and verification of GPA for auto insurance discounts.
The Family Administration Plan also provides you with all the materials necessary to complete a full grade level of education, including: textbooks/workbooks, tests, keys and guidance materials necessary to organize and run your school. However, all grading and record keeping is maintained by the family (including report cards, transcripts, and diplomas).
