Homeschool Partnership Program

The girls are absolutely delighted with their class. We have been able to do all classes well at home and co-op, with the exception of Math. Our family (really) needed your math classes. We are forever grateful to your school."   -  MCS Homeschool Parent

Madison Christian School offers a Homeschool Partnership Program for students in Grades 7-12. Homeschool students who are accepted into Madison Christian School will have the opportunity to take middle school or high school courses for credit. Classes will be offered to any homeschool student who has a school record or transcript indicating that student has met the prerequisites for the desired course.

A homeschool student may only take a maximum of six classes per academic year and will not be able to earn a diploma or participate in graduation exercises through the Homeschool Partnership Program. Proof of residential school district permission to Homeschool is required.

Courses Available

Extracurricular Participation

To participate in athletics or fine arts, at least 50% of courses in which a student is enrolled must be core classes. A core class is defined as any class that may be categorized in one of the following areas of study: Bible, History, Science, Math, English. In order to participate in athletic or after school events on any given day, a student must be in attendance that day for their scheduled class periods.

Athletics

Madison Christian School is a proud member of the Ohio High School Athletic Association (OHSAA) in the Central District. The High School and Jr. High teams compete in the Mid-Ohio Christian Athletic League (MOCAL). In addition to the minimum course requirements, all Homeschool Partnership students must meet the OHSAA and MCS eligibility requirements.

Food Service

Homeschool Partnership Students are encouraged to pack a sack lunch if your classes occur before and after our lunch periods.  MCS currently does not offer a hot lunch program, so all students carry a brown-bag lunch.
