National High School Freshman Excelling in Tennis Starts Professional Circuit in April


Michelle Bertolini, a NHS freshman, will begin professional tennis play in April 2012. She was chosen to spar with one of best players in the world, the Russian Maria Kirilenko (20 of the world ranking WTA), Michelle was unable to play with the International Tennis Federation for the last 8 months because of this opportunity. Michelle accompanied Kirilenko on tour before the U.S. Open along with her Coach Jimy Szymanski.
Michelle had the opportunity to learn from many figures in the tennis world. Coach Szymanki believes that Michelle can become, in two years, one of the best tennis players in the world because of her innate physical and technical conditions. Michelle is competing in national tournaments in Venezuela which is preparing her for the junior tournaments that begin in March. Michelle won the national tennis tournament in singles and doubles. After finishing the current tour, Michelle will start playing professional tournaments. To reach this level of play, she has made many sacrifices including personal, family, while maintaining strict discipline in her studies.

Collierville, TNAmy, a NHS credit recovery student, has a 4.5 weighted g.p.a. She is enrolled in AP and honors courses at her local school in Tennessee.

What brought her to NHS?

Amy could not take an AP and French II course at the same time, so she decided to take French II online with National High School and the AP course at her local high school.
She needed to take French II this year in order to take AP French during her senior year to graduate with the Advanced Placement International Diploma (APID).
Amy was encouraged to take the National French Exam by her French II Honors teacher—and she did! She scored 8th in the state of Tennessee and in the nation.
Homeschool with National High School
Every year, students are faced with new situations that may require homeschool. For parents, this is an equally shared burden. Fortunately, National High School offers an alternative solution to traditional schooling all year round.
Former Homeschool Students:
There are many different scenarios for why National High School is convenient for students who have previously be in homeschool. For example, for many families, parents are working full time and do not have the time to dedicate to the teaching and administrative responsibilities required, parents do not have the qualifications needed to teach core subjects, or students may require an accredited and recognized diploma in order to attend the college of their choice.
In addition, National High School is a great option for both formally homeschooled and first time homeschooling students for the following reasons:
National High School
  1. Offers an advanced college prep diploma track that is geared to meet the admission requirements of colleges and universities. The advanced college prep diploma track also meets or exceeds all state education standards.
  2. Allows both homeschooled and transfer students to transfer in their home school or previous school’s credits. In addition, all credits earned at National High School can be transferred to any school of the student’s choice.
  3. Takes care of all administrative work including in house record keeping, grading, monthly progress reports, and provides students with a student services coordinator that students can contact daily for questions regarding their assignments.
  4. Provides students with teachers who offer live instruction and Q&A sessions which are pre-recorded for the students’ convenience should a class lecture need to be revisited.
  5. Offers students an option to earn their high school diploma while allowing them additional time to focus on their extracurricular obligations. For example, students who are heavily involved in sports.
National High School allows students to work on their courses at their own pace, and have 24/7 access to their assignments. Regardless of what family obligations need to be met, students can earn their diploma from home. The convenience and flexibility of National High School’s online courses is apparent.
