A Christian K–12 education built for learning at home
Porter Hill Academy of Arts and Sciences is a fully online private school serving Arizona students from Kindergarten through Grade 12. We combine structured academics, a biblical worldview, and meaningful family partnership in a school experience designed for home.
Faithful. Flexible. Rooted in the Great Tradition.
School and home working together
Our Learning Steward model gives families a clear role without asking parents to become the teacher. Learning Stewards help students establish routines, stay engaged, and communicate when support is needed.
The academy provides instruction, curriculum, assessment, academic expectations, and school communication. Families provide the daily encouragement and oversight that help students make the most of learning from home.

Students learn online, but they are not left to navigate school on their own. Porter Hill provides the curriculum, instruction, academic expectations, assessment, and communication that give each school week its structure.
Structured online learning
Courses follow clear academic expectations, assignments, assessments, and term schedules so families know what students are learning and what comes next.
Christian formation
Faith is woven naturally into the life of the school through a biblical worldview that shapes how students approach truth, character, responsibility, and service.
Family partnership
Parents and guardians serve as Learning Stewards, helping students maintain routines and engagement while the academy remains responsible for the work of the school.
From Kindergarten to graduation
Students need different kinds of support as they grow. Our K–12 program develops from strong foundations in the early years to greater independence, reasoning, and communication in middle and high school.

Porter Hill Academy of Arts and Sciences exists to help students grow in knowledge, wisdom, character, and faith. We value enduring ideas, careful reasoning, strong communication, and the study of the arts and sciences within a Christian understanding of truth.
Our aim is not simply to help students complete school. We want them to become thoughtful learners who can use what they know with integrity, responsibility, and service to others.
“The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom: a good understanding have all they that do his commandments: his praise endureth for ever.”
Psalm 111:10, KJV
What families can expect

Students know what to study, what to complete, and how their progress is measured.
Regular communication
Families receive information and guidance designed to keep home and school connected.
Age-appropriate independence
Expectations develop as students mature, with younger students receiving more support and older students assuming greater responsibility.
