Academic Honesty: Cheating and intentional plagiarism are dishonest and thieving.  Since the moral excellence of the students is of greater importance than even academic excellence, all instances of these offences will be treated very seriously.  If the suspicions of the instructor are raised, he will contact the parents to explain the situation.  He will make suggestions as to his preferences regarding action to be taken, but will follow the parents' lead in disciplining the student.  With a sufficiently mature student, in full knowledge of the nature of his actions, the instructor's recommendation will be the most severe---an F for the course. Grading: Instructors grade and provide feedback for assignments, quizzes, exams, and projects in different ways for each course.  Please see the course syllabi for specifics.  Grades can be checked at the Classroom webpage. End of Year Certificate: At the end of the year, Rolling Acres School will make certificates for students, which include the following: Name of student Course title Final grade received by student The Rolling Acres Emblem Instructor's signature date Cost: All prices are indicated here, PRICES, unless otherwise noted in a course description. Missed Classes and Assignments: Please notify an instructor about a missed class and/or assignment as soon as possible to arrange make-up work. If the student knows that he will be missing an upcoming class, please notify the instructor. Textbooks and Course materials: We strive to provide textbooks and course materials that are freely available online; however, please read the instructor's syllabus carefully to make sure there is not a textbook to purchase. Student-Teacher Email Correspondence: We believe both that it is important for students to learn the art of letter writing and that the practice of formality is very appropriate and educative; hence, we request that all student email correspondence include appropriate greetings, proper and polite phrasing, and cordial closings.  Letter writing is an especially important skill to learn as students prepare to go to university or to enter the work force.

TESTIMONIALS "Rolling Acres School has been a huge blessing to our homeschool. The academics are challenging but are adaptable to our child's abilities. The classes are reasonably priced and are cost-efficient. The teachers are kind, intelligent, attentive and responsive to me and my child. We appreciate the convenience of online classes, the multiple class types available, and last but certainly not least, the Catholic environment. Thank you, RAS!" "Not your grandmother's correspondence class! Rolling Acres School has consistently exceeded my expectations and made me even more firm in my conviction to homeschool ( with a little help from some scholars in a remote Virginia outpost). :- ) Years from now my child will not be able to say I robbed them of an education, because they will know I really made out like a bandit- getting the best education available for a price no one can beat." "We have been thrilled with the four classes my 13 year old has taken. I wish I had found this school sooner!" "The Rolling Acres School is a high quality, interactive, Catholic program aimed at giving your child a firm foundation in Christian moral thought and classical languages. Likewise, it challenges the children to think and reason while providing a clear understanding of the great works and languages of mankind. Ken and Alecia Rolling are superb, caring and committed teachers, whom the children admire greatly. This school receives our highest recommendation." "I was very impressed by the classes my son took with Alecia and Kenneth Rolling. I was looking for courses that would direct and foster my son's natural interest in ancient culture, language and philosophy without overburdening him or me. Alicia and Kenneth managed to do just that: they challenge students to be responsible and inspire them with a rich curriculum. My son has thoroughly enjoyed his classes and I have enjoyed the conversations we have had as a result of the many thought-provoking assignments." "My son, 13, began taking Logic with RAS this year. He has truly enjoyed the class. Mr. Rolling is very engaging with the students, bringing levity to a tough subject. I have been very pleased with the quality and format of the class. Other online options don't seem to compare with the excellence found here!"
