My Audio School exists to provide children with excellent audio content on a variety of school subjects in a format that they can easily use all by themselves.
Each book on My Audio School is broken down, chapter by chapter, so that children can listen to their daily assignments in manageable chunks. Links are provided for those who prefer to read the book online, or for parents who want to burn a book to CD or download it to Mp3.
Classic books, old-time radio theater, historical radio and television broadcasts and more make My Audio School a treasure trove for educators, parents and students alike.

Covenant Theological Seminary in St. Louis, Missouri, has made several classes available for free online through their Worldwide Classroom.
Although Ancient and Medieval Church History is a college-level course, I believe it would be appropriate for a high school student studying this topic.
In order to listen to these free classes, you’ll need to register with Worldwide Classroom. After registering, you’ll be able to listen to all of these sessions on Mp3, as well as download written transcripts and study guides for each lecture.
Here is a course description and a list of the topics covered in this course.
Course Description (taken from the Worldwide Classroom site):
A study of Christianity from the Early Church to the dawn of the Reformation, with source material readings. This course places an emphasis on the application of church history to life and ministry and helps the student to understand the development of Christian thought and the formulation of doctrine as part of God’s overall pattern of history. This course is taught by David Calhoun.
