About our School: CORE Placer

CORE is a public Personalized Learning charter school, supporting families who home-school their children. A personalized educational program is designed for each student. There is no cost to attend our school.

Families are assigned to a credentialed teacher who provides constant direction for the parent/student/teacher team. This credentialed teacher assists the parent in the selection of curriculum from a vast array of state standards aligned texts, appropriate for each child's level in each subject area, and then guides the parent throughout the year. Parents take the role of the primary educator of their own child. It is a challenging, exciting, rewarding task.

The school also provides enrichment classes at our school sites. Elementary students may choose classes ranging from academic to enrichment. Some classes encourage advanced students to explore ideas and events beyond the regular curriculum.
High school students are offered a number of academic support and enrichment classes. ROP, junior college concurrent enrollment, and community instruction are all attractive components of our high school program.
All students are given opportunities to extend learning through parents' own creativity and exploration. The program affords an enormous amount of freedom to places and attend events interesting and valuable to the student, including field trips assemblies, and school fairs.
In addition, CORE works with parents to receive instruction from approved vendors in the community. These range from karate lessons to ceramics, tutoring in specific subjects, etc. A portion of a budget is reserved for both enrichment and academic tutoring.
