Economics Course Overview:
This Introduction to Economics class explores a breadth of principles from the choices individuals make daily to the running of a monopoly to the goals that our national government pursues. While this course is taught from a decidedly Biblical worldview, we make it a point to look at all sides of an issue – and admit it when the answers aren’t so easy. We won’t discover iron-clad solutions to the problems of unemployment or poverty, but students will learn to ask the right questions, and hopefully, understand the answers.
This class is designed to be schedule friendly.
Features include fill-in-the-blank study guides, self-grading homework submission, pre-made (advertisement free) Quizlet decks, and tests scheduled on the weekends for maximum flexibility. This rigorous half-credit high school course is a blast.

Course Reviews:
I enjoyed learning about the stocks, and well, most everything else too! It was a highly enjoyable class and greatly exceeded my expectations.
I liked learning about the economy. Before this class I really didn’t know anything about economics, and now I know so much!
I like how organized the homework was. There were no real surprises, so it was easier to get a rhythm and stay on top of things. Everything was very consistent. I also liked that we spent a lot of time reviewing in class. If you attend class and do the homework, you will be prepared for the test.
“I liked how she seemed most concerned about making sure we were understanding everything. She made it hard to fail! :)”
“She greatly encourages class participation. It’s obvious that she really wants us to understand and remember the material and makes class fun.”
