Weekly Guides
Access weekly enrichment guides that provide everything you need. Each guide outlines lessons, texts, projects, and activities — removing the stress of planning while bringing meaningful learning into your home. These are the same lessons taught within our local Hillside program.
Instructional Materials
You will receive the exact instructional materials our students are using at our local program. Our videos, classroom presentations, worksheets, along with our engaging project based learning activity.
Engaging Project Based Learning
Ever struggle to bring learning to life? That’s our specialty. Let us curate for you projects that make learning memorable and fun.
Simplified Enrichment
After completing reading, writing, and math at home, it can feel overwhelming to also create meaningful experiences in the subjects we value most — history, geography, science, art, music, and poetry. Hillside Online is designed to help with all of it.

Our weekly guides (lesson plans) will coordinate with the curriculums to create a comprehensive learning experience. However, parents in our brick and mortar schools do not always purchase the curriculum so it’s up to you and what fits your family goals best.
For the 2026-2027 below are the curriculums we will be using:
History - The Good and the Beautiful Year 2
Geography - No Curriculum
Science - Anatomy and Physiology - The Good and The Beautiful: Health and Human Body
Enrichment - No Curriculum

Hillside Online does not utilize live classes, all learning is asynchronous and led by the parent.
