Full & Part Time Programs
Full-Time Program
Students who enroll full-time at Tilden Preparatory School have the advantage of individualizing all of their academic courses. One-to-one teaching of academic courses offers complete flexibility to accommodate different paces of learning and different learning styles. Students who learn more easily when taking fewer courses at one time have the option to do this, and can still complete needed requirements within a given year. Students who want a rigorous academic experience can opt to take AP courses in each subject area, while students who prefer to devote more of their time to non-academic pursuits can take required courses for high school graduation at their own pace.
To balance the need for group experience, we offer small group classes, group labs, and larger non-academic group classes that accommodate a range of capability (such as P.E., Art and Film).
Our approach allows us to tap into students’ internal motivation. We explore students’ passions, and use every opportunity to engage them through what they do best.
Part-Time Program
Students who wish to take one or more courses with us while remaining enrolled at their current high school can do so with permission from their high school. If you choose this option, we will provide you with a Concurrent Enrollment form to have signed by your school counselor or administrator. We work closely with local private and public schools, who know our reputation and our curriculum. We are always available to assist with paperwork if necessary.
