About

Enlightium Academy

Enlightium Academy is a premier, accredited, private Christian online school for grades 3–12 with a parent-led textbook curriculum for grades PreK–2.

Founded in 2003 by Elena V. Solodyankin and a dedicated team of Christian educators, Enlightium Academy (Enlightium) has been recognized and accredited as an innovator in home education and online learning by Cognia (formerly AdvancED/NWAC), Association of Christian Schools International (ACSI), and Virginia Council for Private Education (VCPE).

For almost two decades, families across the United States and around the world have partnered with Enlightium in educating their children from a Christian perspective. Through our membership with National Merit & National Honor Society (NHS), National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA), and College Board for Advanced Placement (AP) we provide opportunities for our college preparatory students.

Guided by experienced counselors, Enlightium students can select courses that best fit their academic, college, and career pathways from Concurrent Credit, Dual Enrollment, Advanced Placement (AP), Honors, and STEM, including courses through Gifted & Higher-Level Learner (GHLL), English Language Learner (ELL), and Intervention programs.

Our Philosophy

At Enlightium, we teach from the Biblical worldview and provide an academic program that satisfies accreditation requirements and prepares young people to live successfully in this world. Our students are given a strong background in reading, language, mathematics, science, and history. We provide godly Christian teachers who serve as role models for students on developing a Christian mindset (consistent life view with Christ preeminent) as a critical component within our Expected Student Outcomes (ESOs). These ESOs drive student teacher interaction, the overall educational model and what an ideal Enlightium graduate should exhibit: spiritually, academically, physically, socially, and emotionally.

Spiritual

Upon graduation, students will be equipped with a biblical worldview that impacts mind, heart, and body in ongoing Christian maturity and ministry in the world. Students will understand the importance and practice of prayer, the study of Scripture, intellectual growth, physical health, and participation in a local church and/or ministry. Students will comprehend, apply, and seek to maximize their unique gifting and vocational endeavors for life-long Gospel contribution to society and culture (1 Thessalonians 5:23–24)

Academic

Upon graduation, students will develop an academic proficiency from a biblical worldview that enables and empowers students to flourish academically in accordance with the knowledge and wisdom of Christ. Students will obtain a mastery of core subjects, critical-thinking skills, a learner’s disposition, an appreciation for the arts and classical literature, written communication skills, technological skills and safe practices, and the practical tools for assessing and evaluating each student’s future college and/or career path (Colossians 1:9–10).

Physical

Upon graduation, students will acquire the knowledge and practical skills necessary for honoring one’s body as the image of God. Students will grasp the value and discipline of exercise, nutrition, hygiene, and healthy sleep/rest patterns (1 Corinthians 6:19–20).

Social

Upon graduation, students will be equipped and empowered to demonstrate the attitude and servant heart of Jesus Christ toward fellow humanity. Students will embody a biblical worldview and Christian values that correlate with loving motivations and acts. Accordingly, students will appropriately interrelate, serve, and respect all people from all backgrounds, whether in direct or indirect communicative contexts (John 13:12–17).

Emotional

Upon graduation, students will acquire a well-rounded understanding and practice of emotional care that issues from a biblical worldview rooted in God’s benevolence and the Holy Spirit’s empowerment. Students will cultivate emotional health by assessing, evaluating, and responding faithfully and fruitfully to their emotions for a holistic and healthy life in Christ (Psalm 139:23–24).

Our Methods

Enlightium students are educated through a world-class digital Christian curriculum that empowers them to take charge of their learning while receiving the necessary level of support from counselors, teachers, and staff. We accomplish this by partnering with parents, who provide the necessary support and supervision at home, while the Enlightium team delivers the education and tools for mastery learning. We guide parents to solutions for the challenges that an online student may face.

Our Promise

Enlightium educators promise to care for each family and cultivate the growth of our students academically and spiritually from the biblical perspective. We do our best to deliver excellent service within the tuition package chosen by parents and to take action to remedy or compensate when set expectations are not met by the Enlightium team. We listen and respond efficiently to feedback received from parents to benefit the student. We treat each family with dignity, respect, grace, and fairness.
