It is our pleasure to welcome you to American School, a leader in distance education since 1897.
Since our founding, we have helped more than three million students in the United States and around the world earn a high school diploma at home
or from another accredited school.
For more than a century, American School offered only high school correspondence courses,
but today we complement those with the best online high school courses and online middle school courses available.
Soon our curriculum will include middle school correspondence courses,
honors courses for students in grades 6-12, and AP courses for high school students.
