Frequently asked questions
Can Central Valley agricultural families homeschool around harvest schedules?
Yes. Many Fresno-area families work in agriculture (table grapes, almonds, citrus, dairy) and have seasonal work intensity. Live classes run 5 AM – 2 PM PT with all sessions recorded — your child stays academically synchronised during peak harvest weeks when family schedules shift. California's PSA filing requires no proof of "school hours" — only that the child receives equivalent instruction across the year.
Does Smartious accommodate Spanish-speaking Central Valley households?
Yes. Smartious instruction is in English (Cambridge IGCSE/A-Level), which strengthens US university applications. Spanish home language is preserved naturally. Cambridge Spanish 7159 IGCSE and 9716 A-Level are excellent for native Spanish speakers — Fresno State, UC Merced, UC Davis all recognise Cambridge Spanish A-Level for advanced placement credit.
