Our auditing option is called flex status. Students may register for any course as a flex student. In addition, students currently enrolled may change their status to flex in any course at any point before the last day of class. Flex students are able to access the course materials, attend live class sessions, and receive teacher feedback for assignments submitted on-time.

Flex status is a good option for students who need to relieve some academic pressure or who would like to remain in a difficult class, but are struggling with the course material and/or falling behind in the course.

Flex enrollments will not be included on the HSLDA Online Academy transcript. Students are allowed to list flex-status courses for credit on their parent- or school-created high school transcript—without mentioning HSLDA Online Academy—if their parent or school determines that their work merits high school credit. Parents are encouraged to consult the Canvas gradebook before assigning a grade. However, please note that when a student changes to flex status in an AP^® course, it can no longer be designated as “AP^®” on the student’s transcript. Flex enrollments are also not eligible for dual credit with Colorado Christian University.

Flex status does not qualify a student for any tuition discounts or refunds.

To request a change to flex status, contact the Academy Administrative Office. Once an enrollment has been changed to flex status, the enrollment cannot be reverted to normal status.
