What happens when students are given the freedom to explore subjects that truly interest them?

 

Engagement rises. Creativity expands. Confidence follows.

 

At Christa McAuliffe Academy School of Arts and Sciences (CMASAS), our accredited online high school courses provide dynamic learning experiences that many traditional schools simply cannot offer. Through flexible, part-time enrollment, students can take a single online course to explore a career path, fulfill graduation requirements, or build future-ready skills — all without leaving their current school.

 

Here’s what that exploration can look like:

 

Forensic Science: Hands-On Investigation

In our Forensic Science online course, students step into the role of an investigator. Using a hands-on lab kit, they analyze blood spatter patterns, examine broken glass fractures, reconstruct crime scenes, and evaluate evidence using scientific reasoning. This mastery-based course develops critical thinking while offering real-world application — ideal for students interested in medicine, criminal justice, or STEM careers.

 

Cosmetology: Creativity Meets Career Exploration

Our Cosmetology course introduces students to nail, hair, skincare, and makeup techniques while teaching health, safety, and industry standards. It’s both artistic and professional — giving students insight into entrepreneurship and careers in the beauty industry.

 

Technology, Coding & Design: Build What’s Next

CMASAS also offers high school electives online in:

  • Web Design
  • Game Design
  • Programming
  • Digital Media

These self-paced online classes nurture problem-solving, creativity, and digital fluency — essential skills in today’s connected world.

 

At CMASAS, we deliver mastery-based learning within a caring, personalized community. Students are supported by experienced instructors who adapt learning to individual goals and interests.
