What Are the Benefits of Enrolling My Child Full-Time?
Results show that full-time students who enroll in the Williamsburg program (taking four or more courses) achieve higher grades, develop vital time management skills, and make deeper social connections with their peers and mentors. They also outperform their peers on ACT/SAT exams and are better equipped for life as adults after graduation.
In addition, all full-time students at Williamsburg Academy of Colorado can receive a diploma, get free books and materials, and receive our premiere technology package complete with a student laptop, internet filtering, and tech support at no charge. We’re also exploring adding VR sets and other tech options for full-time students in the future. -
What If I Don’t Want to Enroll My Child Full-Time?
Take 2 or 3 Courses
Suppose full-time enrollment at Williamsburg does not meet your student’s needs, and they do not intend to graduate from Williamsburg. In that case, they can enroll in Williamsburg Learning’s Homeschool Enrichment (HSE) program through Colorado Education Reinvisioned BOCES.
Through the HSE program, BOCES will still cover the cost of books and supplies for your child’s Williamsburg courses (excluding a laptop, internet filtering, and tech support). To be eligible for the HSE, students must enroll in 2-3 courses, one of which must be a core course. There is no application required to enroll through the HSE.
Take 1 Course
Students who take one course are not eligible to enroll at Williamsburg Academy of Colorado or through Williamsburg Learning’s HSE program. However, you may register and pay privately through Williamsburg Academy Private School. Instructions for registering through private pay are available on this page.

Can My Student Transfer Credit to Williamsburg?
