Are family-sized groups. Six to ten students is usually set as a maximum. Are offered to a broad age range. Are popular at all levels, and are especially in demand for teens. Conclusion Mini-schools describe any learning arrangement where individuals are paid for offering learning experiences and activities to small groups of homeschooled students for one or two full or half days each week.
Programs offer needed support for many parents.
Sponsors may continue to homeschool their children while generating income. Although the name creates a desirable identity for students, the most successful models are quite different from traditional schools. Sponsors have the freedom to create the program they want out of their passion and commitment to the needs of homeschooling families. Like Learning Clubs, mini-schools can be developed in a multitude of directions. I look forward to the day that unique mini-schools are organized by passionate and knowledgeable experts, offer every imaginable topic from alphabets to zeppelins, and can be found in every neighborhood.
