SUMMARY:MPE Webinar - Enrichment Programs\, Co-ops\, Athletics: What Works for You?
DESCRIPTION:In this webinar\, we’ll help homeschool families cut through the noise by considering your family’s specific needs. For example\, are you looking for “on-site” where parents stay with their students throughout the experience? Or do you prefer “drop-off” options where children learn from third-party educators (and parents continue the learning at home)? \nPricing can also affect your decision-making process\, and we’ll discuss ways to budget for – and hopefully save on – tuition costs\, enrollment fees\, and more. Finally\, make sure you’ve considered important intangibles such as the program’s vision and mission\, legal factors\, and conflict-resolution policies!
