Do you need a small, gentle, social, school setting for your 2nd thru 6th grader? Maybe some individualized placement? With no labeling? Fun? Love learning? Character building? Contact me info NOSPAM@orgstrat.net
I will also take students learning to read at 8:00am to 9:00am. If there are enough students who want to stay for the day, so that we can afford to hire staff, we will start also a K/First class.
We hope to open in Cedar Park, TX, and in Lubbock, TX. But let me know wherever you are, if you are interested. We aim to help.
What is a Micro-School?
A micro-school is NOT like the one-room schoolhouse you saw on Little House on the Prairie. That is a school, old-fashioned style, with a textbook for each grade, with each child progressing lock-step. Each child is in a grade, and works with that grade.
By contrast, first imagine a homeschooling mother with all her children at the dining room table. She has a easy to teach, Bible based, project rich, pedagogically sound curriculum in front of her. This year they are studying Rome. Everyone is learning together, but the 7 year old and the 11 year old have different homework. Next year we will all study the Medieval period. Everyone will study history in order; everyone will participate in the projects, and everyone progresses at their own pace. Language arts and even science is keyed to the History lesson. Math is individual, orderly, sensible, high level, but self paced.
Now expand that to a teacher, great with kids, who can likewise open that same curriculum, but she had a bigger table. Elementary children in the morning, and then the junior and senior high kids check in during the afternoon while the elementary students are working on their projects or playing on the playground. There is curricula for the one learning to read, which happens a few minutes everyday at home, or if full time care is needed, then, in another room.
What You Get
Notice, much higher quality education: more individual attention, more care, more engagement, and better curricula. Home like environment. Other children. Everyone works at his or her own level. Christian character.
