Our Online Private School for grades K-12, is rolling out in 2023. This is an alternative to (or supplement for) traditional education. In recent years, home schooling has become more popular. Starting with the pandemic in 2020, many of us learned that it IS possible for students to learn from home in an online classroom. Additionally, many more parents have concerns about the safety of their children and prefer that they learn at home. Some want to home school their children, but need access to a good curriculum. Others are simply fed up with the traditional school curriculum, and prefer having other options. Some students simply need some additional instruction or tutoring to succeed. It is exactly these concerns that we are addressing with our Online Private School.
How does Online Private School work?
We are designing this to be a Global school, with the initial rollout in Australia and the USA. Therefore, a standard curriculum will be used, and is already approved for use in all 50 states. Families can enroll up to 10 students per family for a single monthly cost to access the curriculum. With that, they have the option to simply home school the students. However, if they would like their child to be in an online classroom with a teacher, there is an additional monthly fee per student that varies by grade. However, Kindergarten students can attend the online classes for free. Students may attend up to 5 classes per day for Grades 1-8. Grades 9-12 may attend up to 6 classes per day.
The teachers will introduce themselves via a YouTube video. And then the parents and the students will get to select the teacher for each class or subject. The classes will vary in length from about 30 minutes to an hour, depending on the grade level. Attendance will be counted when the student logs into the class. The classes will be accessible for the students to review, if the student cannot attend that day.
What does it cost?
Obviously, as a private school, there is a fee to attend. However, compared to other private schools, the price is very low and reasonable. Also, as a classified private school, your state may have grants or other funding available for alternative private school education.
To get access to the curriculum, the cost is $99 a month per family for up to 10 students. For additional students, there will be additional fees. This enables you to get access to the information available for you to do your own homeschool program. However, if you would like your child to attend the actual online classes with a certified instructor, there is an additional cost.
Below you will find the cost per student for each grade to attend the online classes with teachers:
- Kindergarten – free
- Grades 1-8 – $109 Monthly
- Grades 9-12 – $129 Monthly
This cost allows you to attend the zoom classes with the teacher(s) of your choosing, and for the subjects that you need. Additionally, you will have access to the video recording of that class for any classes that you may miss.
