The U of A Difference
- What makes the University of Alexandria different than all of the other Michigan cyber charter schools?
- The University of Alexandria is the only Classical cyber school in Michigan
- No other K-8 cyber school provides videos lessons from certified teachers
- Students at U of A can request tutorials, that will then be accessible to all students
- At U offers self-paced learning at various ability levels (or grade levels) in each subject.
Why choose the University of Alexandria?
U of A was founded with the homeschool family in mind. Our motto of “On your time, At your pace” was kept in the forefront for the each of the members of the Administration Team when the curriculum and program were established.
Homeschooled children understand they do not necessarily function in the grade level of their age-equivalency in every subject. At the University of Alexandria, students will be able to learn at their achievement level. So, if a student struggles at a certain subject, he or she can participate in lessons below their enrolled grade level in that subject. If a student excels in a subject, he or she can participate in lessons above their enrolled grade level. All students will be responsible to take the MSTEP standardized test at the end of the year in their enrolled grade level in every subject. However, by participating in lessons at the student’s ability level, they will at least learn something, instead of being allowed to continue to struggle and eventually check out, as most frustrated learners tend to do in the rigidity of a typical schooling experience.
Families who have not previously homeschooled their children can also benefit from the University of Alexandria, based on our Classical Liberal Arts Philosophy and flexible approach to learning. If you would like your child to participate in the same learning experience as your neighborhood public school – only online, U of A is NOT for you. However, if you would like to experience the robust, time-tested classical philosophy, with a truly unique approach, tailored to each student’s level and pace, married to cutting edge technology – The University of Alexandria is your school!

A Word
From Our Principal
Thank you for visiting the University of Alexandria! In the 20 years that I have been involved in education, as a teacher, principal, and central office administrator, I have observed many philosophies and methods. I am convinced that the classical philosophy is the very best for achieving the goal of truly educating our children! I am proud to be part of a school that uses technology to challenge the status quo of today’s traditional educational model. The robust nature of the classical philosophy at U of A, along with the flexibility of the instruction provides a remarkably valuable experience that is second to absolutely none.
– Dr. Cory J. Merante, Ed.D.
