Each young learner is unique, and it is important to choose an educational program that accommodates your child’s personal needs and interests. Yet with so many school options, how do you decide which one is right for your student?

Mastering basic learning techniques:

The instruction students receive in their first few years at school forms the foundation for future academic endeavors, so when researching schools, consider the emphasis placed on proper learning techniques.

  • Does the curriculum reinforce content using multiple approaches?
  • Does the school support its students in developing connections between subjects?

Teaching academic accountability:

Students are required to juggle multiple assignments at once, so it is best to learn time management skills at an early age. Pay attention to how the school promotes academic accountability such as daily or weekly planners or frequent progress reports.

Freedom to explore intellectual interests:

Students who are captivated by their coursework will retain knowledge and return to school each week eager to learn more. You can give your student an advantage by choosing a program that allows them to explore their intellectual passions. 

College acceptance rates and scholarships:

It is important to consider how the academic program will set them up for success in college. You should research each school’s college acceptance rate and the average scholarship dollars earned by graduates.
