Athena's now accepts vouchers from CWCS, OGCS, & SSCS!

Hades has been visiting Blackboard/Elluminate. According to Tech Support, the problems from 9/26 have been fixed. However, you may still experience difficulties logging in. Please be patient with the webinar room as it loads. See you there!

"Please Pardon Our Dust!"
The gradebook seems to be working properly again. Assignments for prior weeks have been re-marked. Hades assures me that he will leave the gradebook alone...for now.

Phase 2 of the upgrade will occur during mid-fall break. Please let me know if anything unusual happens between now and then.

As usual, if you see Hades, keep him occupied! We don't want him to bother us while we make the necessary changes!

Athena's Advanced Academy offers fast-paced and exciting online humanities classes for gifted students. As a parent of gifted children, the founder of Athena's Advanced Academy understands that younger children may be ready for higher level content and analytical thinking, but still desire age-appropriate activities.
  • Athena's Advanced Academy classes are appropriate for students learning at the upper elementary and middle school grade levels.
  • The National Mythology Exam Preparation classes are appropriate for students working at grades 3-9.
  • Literature Club is appropriate for students reading at the upper elementary and middle school grade levels.

At Athena's Advanced Academy, we believe it is important to:
  • give parents the freedom to place their children into appropriate classes defined by abilities, not ages
  • encourage children to draw their own connections between ideas and illustrate them in age-appropriate ways
  • allow asynchronous learners to participate in classes that expand their minds
  • encourage critical thinking and creative expression
  • engage visual and auditory learners alike
  • allow gifted children to advance through curricula at an accelerated pace
  • provide online peer interaction through moderated discussion boards and live webinars
