How do I assign classes to my student?

9 min. readlast update: 09.16.2026

Your student can access their classes through their individual student account. Classes are not available in the Parent Portal.

Once signed in, your student does not have to scroll through the full class library every time they want to continue their schoolwork. As your student begins working through the classes they plan to take, those courses appear under In Progress. Selecting In Progress on the My Classes page shows only the classes the student is currently working on. You do not need to manually assign classes.

Tip: Think of All Classes as the complete library of courses available to your student and In Progress as the student’s current course list. A class appearing in the library does not mean it is part of the student’s course plan or must be completed.

Homeschool Pro gives students broad access to core subjects, nearby grade levels, electives, and additional learning opportunities. This allows families to choose the classes that fit each student, while the In Progress filter keeps the courses they are actually using easy to find.

Select In Progress to view only the classes the student has started.

The student can use the other filters whenever needed:

  • All: Shows every class available in the student’s account
  • Not Started: Shows classes the student has not begun
  • In Progress: Shows classes the student has started but not completed
  • Completed: Shows classes the student has completed

Tip: If a class does not appear under In Progress yet, the student should open the class and complete the first few lessons. It will then be included in the In Progress list.

How Do I Assign Classes to My Student?

Parents do not need to formally assign classes inside the platform.

Instead, the parent can choose the classes, the student can help choose them, or the parent and student can decide together. Once the student begins completing lessons in a class, it is automatically added to In Progress.

For example, you might have the student take:

  • Math
  • ELA
  • Science
  • Social studies
  • A language or elective

After those classes have been started, the student can select In Progress to see only those courses rather than the full class library.

Who Chooses the Student’s Classes?

The parent should guide the student’s course plan and decide which classes the student should take. 

Students can also help choose electives based on their interests.

Once the student starts the classes, they appear under In Progress.

You can also email your Homeschool Advisor for help with:

  • Choosing appropriate classes
  • Selecting the right grade level for each subject
  • Reviewing previous coursework
  • Planning high school courses and credits
  • Preparing for graduation

Homeschool Advisor support is optional and available whenever you need guidance.

Where Can I Find My Student’s Classes?

Classes appear only in the student’s account. They will not appear when you are signed in to the parent account.

The Parent Portal is used for:

  • Enrollment forms
  • Membership information
  • Billing
  • Homeschool Advisor resources
  • Parent support
  • Other family services

Students use their own individual Homeschool Pro login information to access classes, lessons, quizzes, assignments, and course progress.

Once the student account has been created:

  1. Have the student sign in using their individual login information.
  2. Open the My Classes page.
  3. Select any available class to begin or continue learning.

How Does My Student See Only the Classes They Are Working On?

Once the selected classes have been started:

  1. Go to the My Classes page.
  2. Select In Progress above the class list.
  3. Only the classes the student has begun will appear.

For example, the complete class library may contain dozens of courses, while the student’s In Progress list shows only:

  • 7th Grade Math
  • 7th Grade ELA
  • 7th Grade Science
  • 7th Grade Social Studies
  • Spanish
  • Art

The student can use In Progress whenever they want to continue one of their current classes.

Helpful tip: Begin only the classes your student currently plans to use. Additional classes can always be started later.

What If My Student Started a Class but It Is Not Showing Under In Progress?

In most cases, a class appears under In Progress after the student begins completing lessons in it.

Simply opening a class to look at the lesson list does not count as starting the class. The student must complete lesson activity before the class can be included under In Progress.

If the student completed the first lesson but the class still does not appear:

  1. Have the student complete a few more lessons in the class.
  2. Return to the My Classes page.
  3. Select In Progress again.
  4. Refresh the page if needed.

After the student has made a little more progress, the class should appear in the In Progress list.

How Do I Remove a Class From In Progress?

If your student accidentally started a class they do not plan to take, the completed lessons can usually be reset.

To remove the class from In Progress:

  1. Open the class.
  2. Find each lesson the student completed.
  3. Open the completed lesson.
  4. Select Mark Incomplete (button is found under the lesson video).
  5. Repeat this for every completed lesson in the class.
  6. Return to My Classes and refresh the page.

Once all completed lessons have been marked incomplete, the class should no longer appear under In Progress.

Important: If the student completed a quiz or exam in the class, that assessment cannot be marked incomplete through the student account. Contact your Homeschool Advisor for assistance.

What If My Student Has Not Received Login Information?

Student accounts are created after you submit the Learner Enrollment Form.

The Learner Enrollment Form provides RemoteLearning.School with the student’s name, grade level, and other information needed to create the account and provide the correct class access.

To find the form:

  1. Sign in to the Parent Portal.
  2. Open your Homeschool Pro membership.
  3. Expand the Adding Your Students section.
  4. Select Learner Enrollment Form.
  5. Open and submit the form for your student(s). You can include all of your students on one form.

Student login information is usually emailed within 2 to 3 business days after the form is submitted. The email is sent from help@rls.school  so be sure to check your spam or junk folder.

Important: The processing period begins when you submit the Learner Enrollment Form, not when you purchase the membership.

Why Does My Student See So Many Classes?

Homeschool Pro provides broad access to the curriculum rather than limiting each student to a small, locked list of courses.

Students in kindergarten through 8th grade generally receive access to:

  • Their assigned grade level
  • One grade level below
  • One grade level above
  • A large selection of electives and additional classes

For example, a student registered in 7th grade will generally see:

  • 6th-grade classes
  • 7th-grade classes
  • 8th-grade classes
  • Additional electives

High school students generally receive access to all available high school classes so families can select courses based on:

  • Previously earned credits
  • Graduation requirements
  • Course prerequisites
  • Academic strengths
  • College or career plans
  • Student interests

This broad access gives families more flexibility, but it does not mean that every visible class is part of the student’s course plan.

The student is not expected to complete everything shown under All. Once the appropriate courses have been started, selecting In Progress shows only the classes the student is currently taking.

Can I Request Additional Grade Levels?

Yes. If your student needs access to a grade level outside the range already available, please contact us.

You might request additional access if your student:

  • Is working several grade levels ahead in a subject
  • Needs to review material from an earlier grade
  • Wants to take a specific class outside their current access
  • Is following a customized homeschool course plan

Parents may also ask us to remove classes or grade levels that are not needed. In most cases, however, the In Progress filter provides an easy way for students to focus only on the classes they are currently taking.

Can My Student Begin Another Class Later?

Yes. The student can begin another available class at any time.

Once the new class is started, it will appear under In Progress with the student’s other current courses.

This may be helpful when:

  • The student completes a current class
  • The family adds a new elective
  • The student needs review from another grade
  • The student is ready for more advanced material
  • The family changes the course plan
  • A new class is added to the curriculum

Families do not need to choose every course at the beginning of the school year.

What About High School Students?

High school students generally receive access to all available high school classes, but they are not expected to complete every course shown.

High school courses should be selected according to:

  • Credits already earned
  • Remaining graduation requirements
  • Course prerequisites
  • State homeschool requirements
  • College plans
  • Career goals
  • Student interests
  • Expected graduation date

After the high school courses are selected and started, they will appear together under In Progress.

Your Homeschool Advisor can help with:

  • High school course selection
  • Previous credits
  • Graduation requirements
  • Transcripts
  • Diploma preparation
  • College planning
  • Creating a manageable high school plan

Does Each Child Have Their Own In Progress List?

Yes. Every child receives their own individual student account and dashboard.

Even when one family membership covers multiple children, each student has:

  • Their own login
  • Their own available classes
  • Their own In Progress list
  • Their own lesson progress
  • Their own quiz and assignment activity
  • Their own completed classes
  • Their own Certificate Portal

Siblings should always use their own student accounts so their classes and progress remain separate.

What If No Classes Appear in the Student Account?

First, confirm that you are signed in with the student’s individual account rather than the parent account.

If the student is signed in correctly but no classes appear, please contact us and include:

  • The student’s name
  • A screenshot of the My Classes page, if possible

The Bottom Line

Your student does not need to scroll through the entire Homeschool Pro class library whenever they want to continue their coursework.

To create a clear list of the classes they are taking:

  1. Choose the classes with your student.
  2. Classes are added to the "In Progress" list automatically as the student begins them.
  3. Go to My Classes.
  4. Select In Progress.
  5. Continue the student’s current classes from that filtered list.

The complete class library remains available whenever your family wants to add an elective, review another grade level, or explore a new subject.

This gives students both broad access to the curriculum and a simple way to find only the classes they are currently working on.
