Terms & Conditions 2026-27
The following terms and conditions are in place to ensure the efficient and effective operation of our online school.
Parental Responsibility
Parents are expected to take primary responsibility for their students’ education. Logos Online School acknowledges that God has given parents the responsibility for the education of their children and that we instruct those students under the parents’ delegated authority.
-
Parents should check their ClassReach messages daily and respond promptly to any important messages from teachers or administrators.
-
ClassReach forwards all messages to the email address that parents include in their ClassReach profile.
-
Parents will supervise their students’ academic activity and ensure that assignments and tests are completed as required. Parents will proctor tests and quizzes as needed and will supervise the grading of some daily assignments, based on specific teacher/course instructions.
-
If a teacher suspects a student has used AI on a test/assignment, the teacher will share supporting documentation with the parent and ask the parent to discuss this with their student and investigate. Our teachers use AI detection software to assess the likelihood that a student used AI on a particular assignment, but we understand these tools are not foolproof and can produce false positives. Hence, we are cautious in delivering accusations of cheating and will defer to the results of the parents’ investigation and recommendation in these situations.
-
-
Parents are expected to secure any answer keys and ensure that students access them only when permitted by the instructor.
-
Parents also need to be aware of the temptation for students to use Artificial Intelligence to cheat on homework or tests, and consider how they can help their students navigate this temptation. Logos Online School expects the parents to be the primary guards against this type of academic dishonesty.
-
Parents are responsible for procuring and maintaining all required equipment and materials for each registered course.
-
The student must have immediate access to all books and other required materials used for the course, as specified by Logos Online School.
-
If a family has more than one student enrolled in the same class, each student must have his/her own computer, headset, microphone, and internet connection. Logos assumes no responsibility for the technology used by students.
-
Parents are expected to supervise their students' online activities. Students attending online classes and engaging in extracurricular activities with classmates will face temptations unique to this medium. Parents should be diligent in guarding online communications, particularly any that occur outside our closed communication system (ClassReach). The article “Smart Kids and Dumb Phones” by Pastor Douglas Wilson may help parents navigate these waters.
System Requirements
Logos Online School uses ClassReach as its school management system and Zoom as its video conferencing platform. Families must provide the following tools to participate:
-
Required:
-
Computer -- Laptops and desktops are expected to be the norm. Smartphones should be used only in exceptional situations, and only until a computer can be obtained.
-
Webcam (either internal or external to the computer)
-
Microphone -- Some students find the audio quality is better with a headset, but the computer’s built-in mic may be acceptable.
-
Highly recommended:
-
Printer with scanning capability (for submitting assignments)
Academic Standards & Expectations

-
Attendance: Students enrolled in Logos Online School are expected to attend classes on all weekdays noted in the course description. Teachers post class recordings daily so students can view them promptly. Students are responsible for all missed assignments.

-
Cheating or Plagiarism: For issues involving cheating or plagiarism, the primary goals of parents, teachers, and administrators should be confession, repentance, reconciliation, and restoration, with the aim of guiding students to take responsibility for their actions.
-
Honor Roll: Logos Online School recognizes outstanding student scholarships for full-time, Diploma Track students each school year:
-
All A’s = A Honor Roll -- Graduates who achieve the A Honor Roll each year of their high school career with Logos Online School (grades 9-12) may wear the gold honor cord at the Logos Online School graduation ceremony.
-
All A’s & B’s = A/B Honor Roll -- Graduates who achieve the A/B Honor Roll (or a combination of A and A/B Honor Roll) during grades 9-12 with Logos Online School may wear a silver honor cord.
-
Transcripts for students transferring into Logos Online School during high school will be evaluated on a case-by-case basis to determine if they qualify for either honor roll.
-
-
Students With Learning Challenges: We do not create or follow Individual Education Plans (IEPs) or 504 Plans at Logos Online School. However, it is feasible for students with special learning needs to succeed at Logos Online School. That said, no formal effort is made to identify students with special needs. Thus, it is the parents’ responsibility to manage their student’s special needs. We expect all Logos Online School students to complete the required work for their classes, though teachers may be flexible with homework and project deadlines. Teachers will not provide different tests or quizzes, nor apply a different grading scale for students with special needs.
-
Classroom Policies
-
Biblical behavior standards will be followed at all times.
-
Students are required to have their video cameras on during the scheduled class. Students are participating in a community activity and must engage both visually and audibly.
-
The student’s physical “presentation” should not distract the student or his neighbor but promote a scholarly atmosphere. This includes the student’s demeanor, posture, personal attire, hair, and makeup, as well as the background of their video feed.
-
Background music is not permitted, and external noise should be minimized.
-
Classroom Zoom links should not be shared without explicit, documented permission.
-
Teachers will instruct their students in appropriate behavior for their specific classrooms. This will include rules and principles for student use of microphones and the Zoom chat box. Teachers have the authority to vary these policies at their discretion.
Admissions
-
Registration/Enrollment:
-
Returning families receive early enrollment privileges and discounts for two weeks prior to open enrollment.
-
New families may apply for enrollment in Logos Online School and register their students during the open enrollment period, mid-January through August 15. Parents select courses and pay a 20% deposit to reserve a class and time slot.
-
Logos Online School expects parents to understand the course descriptions and prerequisites as detailed in the course description. Course recommendations are provided by a Logos Online Administrator upon request.
-
If the parent intends for their student to earn a Logos Online School diploma, they will provide transcripts or grade reports for all high school coursework; however, this is not required before enrollment.
-
Registration closes on August 15. Logos Online School may accept students after this date, but this is determined on a case-by-case basis. Details of payments, class credits, and other related matters will vary depending on the specific circumstances.
-
Tuition & Discounts:
-
Regular tuition for the 2026-27 school year is $725 per course.
-
When registering for classes, you will pay a non-refundable and non-transferable 20% deposit for each course to secure a seat in a particular class. The 20% deposit applies to the total tuition fee.
-
Full-Time Student Discount: Any student taking four or more courses qualifies for a 10% discount on the tuition balance after the 20% deposit.
-
There are no additional fees (consulting, diploma, etc.).
-
Books and other required materials are not included in the tuition fee. Logos Online School does not sell these materials.
-
Registration & Payment Plans: At registration, parents electronically sign a financial agreement in ClassReach, which itemizes the tuition balance after deposits. A monthly payment plan is then created with the first payment due in June and the final payment in May.
-
For families who register after June 1, we will still create a monthly payment plan; however, the tuition balance will be spread evenly over the remaining months, with the final payment due in May. For example, if a student registers on July 15th, the family will pay the 20% deposit for all classes. We will divide the remaining tuition balance by 10 months (August through May). The first monthly payment would be due August 1, and the final payment would be due May 1.
-
Families desiring to pay in full may do so at any time after their ClassReach account is set up.
-
Withdrawals: Logos Online School retains and hires the best available teachers for your students. We contract our teachers for the entire school year based on registrations and deposits, so our withdrawal policy reflects this commitment. As previously noted, the 20% tuition deposit is non-refundable and non-transferable in all situations.
-
Students withdrawing before June 1:
-
If tuition has been paid in full, a refund for the tuition paid (excluding the 20% deposit) will be issued.
-
If the family is on a monthly payment plan, any tuition paid before June 1 (excluding the 20% deposit) will be refunded. The obligation to pay the tuition balance for the year will be forgiven.
-
Students withdrawing on June 1 through the first two weeks of classes:
-
If the family is on a monthly payment plan and withdraws June 1st through the first two weeks of school, no tuition refunds will be given. Families are responsible for any tuition balances due before the withdrawal, but the obligation to pay the remaining tuition balance will be waived.
-
If tuition has been paid in full:
-
Withdrawing during June: Receive a 90% refund of tuition paid (less the 20% deposit)
-
Withdrawing during July: Receive an 80% refund of tuition paid (less the 20% deposit)
-
Withdrawing during August through the first two weeks of classes: Receive a 70% refund of tuition paid (less the 20% deposit)
-
Students withdrawing after the first two weeks of classes:
-
If tuition has been paid in full, no refunds will be given. However, we will provide a prorated tuition credit for the next school year, which may be applied to any member of a student's immediate family.
-
If the family is on a payment plan, no refunds will be given for tuition already paid, and the obligation to pay the tuition balance for the year will continue. However, the tuition balance paid after withdrawal (not the 20% deposit) may be used as a tuition credit for the next school year for any member of a student's immediate family.
