At my husband's independent high school, each student signed a contract between the parent and student declaring how much work and what specific subjects would be covered each year.
So a textbook had x amount of chapters and they would cover y amount of work each week to complete the subject in a certain time frame - one semester or full year of school.
Then the student was held accountable for completing the amount of work the student and parents agreed to.
So it really was like homeschooling, just someone other than the parent was holding the students accountable for completing the work.
Sounds like this Landry school the parents were not as much in the equation.
