A History of Success

Many families today
that are experiencing fast-paced lives full of information overload,
overcrowded schools, isolation from extended family, and school
curriculums that are inflexible, are looking for alternatives. These
include students who devote daily time to special interests
such as equestrian training, music training, a job, modeling, etc.
We also serve families whose children are struggling in their current
school setting by formulating a program that suits their specific
situation. Regionally accredited home school curriculums
that offer transferable transcripts and credits as well as a high
school diploma, can be the solution.
» #1 Education Place offers a variety of formats to support
those students who are using all, or a part of, a home school
curriculum.

- New Montessori 6-9 Program - $11,000 per student for 2008 school year

What We Offer
» Our years of experience
as educators have allowed us to design a variety of
programs to address the educational needs of students from
primary school through college.
| » We implement SACS accredited curricula from: |
 |
| |
» The Calvert School
» Texas Tech
» The University of Nebraska
» The American School
» Brigham Young University
We are able to guide students to a curriculum that best
suites their individual learning style.
|
 We begin by helping select an appropriate course list
and daily schedule to fit the needs of each student. A
timeline for completion, with attainable goals, is created
by the teacher and the student in a cooperative effort so that
there is ownership and accountability.
This relationship is developed and changes over time so that
students learn that this process is ongoing and requires their
participation and responsible action.
» Our goal is to help students develop a self-directedness
and motivation that will remain with them for life. |

Interaction with Your Family
The foundation of the
effective relationship that we have with each student is the
interaction and partnership with each family. Before any
action is taken regarding your current educational situation,
the family and educators from #1 Education Place meet
to:
» gather information about
the student
» make suggestions
» counsel based on individual circumstances |
 |
» This involvement continues throughout your child's
experience at #1 Education Place. You can count on us to
do exactly what we promise while remaining professional.
» This trust and confidence creates relationships that last
for years and leave parents wondering how they ever
managed it all before.
More importantly, it creates for the students a warm and
caring network of people who truly care about their
success and help them to learn from their mistakes. The
rewards of this type of relationship cannot be understated.
