Low-cost Private Schools For Your Kids That Charge Less Than $950 a Year Tuition?—Wow!
By Joel Turtel
Millions of desperate parents today are appalled at the inferior education public schools give their kids, but think they have no where else to go. The good news is that busy working parents can now give their kids a quality, low-cost, private-school education at home using the Internet.
Many parents believe that the only alternative to public schools is either a Catholic or Protestant-affiliated school or expensive non-religious private school. The problem is that even Catholic schools now charge an average tuition between $3000 to $4000 a year. Non-religious private schools can charge between $7000 to over $14,000 a year.
Millions of low and middle-income parents simply cannot afford this tuition, so they think they are stuck with public schools. Luckily, parents can now give their kids an excellent private-school education through Internet schools that cater to K-12th grade students.
The new K-12 Internet private schools are similar to the online education that major universities now offer to hundreds of thousands of adults. Many prestigious universities today now let high-school graduates and other adults study for Bachelor degrees online in nursing, engineering, business administration, and many other fields.
Online university degree programs have been around for some time and are very successful. Students can study for their college degrees in the comfort of their home, saving precious time and money. The university assigns a teacher/mentor to each student, and the students can often study at their own pace. Moreover, the Bachelor degrees that students get from these online university programs are the same degrees that the universities give to their students who study on campus.
K-12 Internet private schools do the same thing for K-12 education for your children as online university degree programs do for adults. Even better, many Internet private schools have low tuition costs, from as low as $350 a year to $2000 or more a year. Many schools charge less than $900 a year tuition.
Most Internet private schools give children get a thorough education in Reading, Math, History, and many other subjects in the curriculum, and the school assigns a personal teacher to each child.
There are dozens of excellent Internet private schools parents can choose from. Some schools such as Keystone National High School only offer high-school programs while others offer a complete, kindergarten through 12th grade education.
Many accredited Internet schools give a course of study similar to traditional private schools. They take children through a progressive curriculum in math, science, reading and writing, history, and many other subjects. This structured, comprehensive program, in effect, gives children a personal teacher and private-school education in their own living room.
This setup is especially helpful for single-working moms, or families where both mother and father work. Since Internet-school teachers supervise the child's education, it's less likely that parents have to take time from work or quit their job to homeschool their kids. As a result, Internet private schools take most of the homeschooling responsibility off parents' backs.
Because of these new, low-cost Internet private schools, even low-income and middle-income parents no longer have to settle for a third-rate public-school education for their children. Parents can now take advantage of many excellent, low-cost education alternatives that can give their children a first-rate education and a rewarding future.
Joel Turtel's book, "Public School, Public Menace," has a Resource section devoted to Internet private schools and many other education options. The author lists dozens of Internet schools with their website addresses. Parents can quickly research these schools, find out if the yearly tuition fits their budget and the curriculum and teaching methods look suitable for their child.
