Learning That Shapes Who Students Become


At Williamsburg, high school isn’t just about earning credits—it’s about learning how to think, lead, and live with purpose. Our online program helps students build confidence, curiosity, and character—skills that prepare them to thrive in college, career, and life.

The Williamsburg Approach

To prepare students for adulthood and independence, we go beyond textbooks and tests.

Students engage deeply with ideas that matter, guided by mentors who challenge them to discover who they are, what they believe, and how they want to contribute to the world.

Mentors hand-pick the readings in these courses to spark transformations in high school students—moments when they see themselves and the world in an entirely new way. As students complete each reading, they feel the joys and sorrows of memorable characters and learn to see how the themes, plotlines, symbolism, and cause-and-effect in literature relates to their own daily lives. In addition to reading great novels and epic poems, students develop their writing skills through both critical analyses and creative projects. Students also gain a new awareness of how literature has shaped and been shaped by world events over time.

Program_HS-leadership-a
Leadership Program

You’ve heard the saying, “Today’s youth are tomorrow’s leaders.” As your student moves through high school, they are pursuing the transition from “today’s youth” to “tomorrow’s leader”—and you want them to move into adulthood with a sense of confidence in their ability to lead themselves and to inspire the people around them. Most importantly, you want them to have the self-awareness and grit they need to create a happy, meaningful, and successful life. This is what our High School Leadership Program is all about.

Program_social-studies-a
Social Studies Program

As your student engages more with the world, they face the challenge of integrating their values with those of the people around them. In society today, it’s not always easy for your student to live authentically, with an awareness of how culture shapes their thoughts. You want your student to live life as an independent thinker who is not afraid to challenge the status quo—to understand why society is the way it is and see how they can make it better. Our High School Social Studies Program prepares your student to live this kind of life.
