Welcome to Regina Caeli Academy (RCA), a private school satellite program in California. RCA administratively supports Catholic and Catholic-friendly families who educate their children at home.

Since 1994, our Mission has been to serve families who homeschool independently and raise children in accordance with the Magisterium of the Catholic Church. Parents are free to choose their own religious curriculum and to utilize alternative education resources such as local co-ops, homeschool-specific independent classes, online classes, and traditional high school classes, or college courses, all while RCA serves as the “umbrella” organization between the family and the State.

Home-based education in California is classified as private school education. RCA files the annual California Private School Affidavit under which each registered household is considered a “satellite campus,” and parents are categorized as “teachers” of the school. Administration of RCA is conducted as for any private school in California. As such, RCA may publish a recommended Course of Study for elementary and high school and may publish high school graduation course and credit requirements. Since RCA does not offer in-class instruction, students are exempt from mandatory vaccination requirements for enrollment.

When parents enroll with RCA, they are assured they are homeschooling in compliance with California law. Personal information and records are kept private and secure; they are not reported to the State. Standardized testing is not required, nor is submission of work samples.
