Cedar Life Academy Requirements

  • Students must be residents of California. However, CLA will accept students who will be living in California by the time school starts and students who are traveling out of state as part of their schooling.
  • Parents must have reliable access to email. Much of the communication between CLA and parents is done electronically.
  • Parents must have an interest in educating their children responsibly and agree to provide adult supervision.
  • We expect that single parents will notify the non-custodial parent, and if needed, receive consent to enroll their children in CLA.

Registration

Parents must complete the required paperwork and return it along with payment to Cedar Life Academy before their children can be enrolled in the school. We will provide the forms and assist you in filling them out. The steps involved to register are outlined below:

  1. Send an email to mail@cedarlifeacademy.com and provide your phone number. We will call you to discuss your homeschool plan for next year.
  2. After the call, we will email the registration papers and information about how to pay by check or Paypal.
  3. Once the forms have been returned, you will receive a formal letter confirming that your child has been enrolled. This is for your records, to show to anyone who might inquire about your child's education.

Optional Cedar Life Academy Photo ID

(this offer is only for enrolled CLA students and teachers)

If you would like a CLA student or teacher ID card (especially recommended for teens), submit payment ($10/card) by check or PayPal, and email a current JPG photo to mail@cedarlifeacademy.com.

The card will include the name and photo of student or teacher, with a designation of "Teacher" or grade level of the student, and will indicate it is valid for the current school year. Cedar Life Academy ID cards are professionally made and are similar in size, weight, and feel to a credit card, and have a signature strip on the backside. The cards have Cedar Life Academy's name, address, and phone number.

Some teachers use them for store discounts, and teens may use them to gain admission somewhere as a student, or to prove they are enrolled in a private school, thus explaining why they aren't in the public school during school hours. Younger children may want one just because it's fun to have a school ID card!
