Our private online charter school “Brainfood” (first-of-its-kind!!) will be “opening up its doors” in January 2024! And this is good news for parents, grandparents, the rest of the caregivers, teachers, and of course – children! Yes in our online community, we use the phrase “first-of-its-kind“ quite a bit, and we truly mean it.
So what would get us so excited about it? “Online” does not necessarily mean best, right? In fact, if you asked me as a former educationalist and trainer just a few years ago I’d not be showing too much enthusiasm because I am still a strong believer in face-to-face learning. However, we have every reason to think that this is the exact direction we are heading with this unique distance education program. And these reasons are rock solid. Why? Just keep reading and you’ll see why and how this is different from traditional schooling.
Interesting facts about home learning
Let’s start with a few statistical facts. Four youngsters studying at home happened to be among the ten winners of the 2001 National Geography Olympiad. The University of Maryland did a similar study in 1998 with 20,000 school-age participants, and the schoolchildren were less successful than homeschooled children. Isn’t it impressive in itself?
So my interest in psychology led me to read some specialized literature in this field, and I came across psychologist Larry Shyers’ opinion in one of them. He concluded that children who study at home display better behavior than their peers in traditional schools because of their more appropriate behavior patterns. Parents who homeschool their children typically model positive behavior for their children while other caregivers may not be very good at it. I thought it was an interesting finding in favor of home education or online learning for that matter. Because children can feel more protected and guarded against bad influences of their peers or as sadly as it sounds, occasionally adults. So why do the current realities support a different approach?
School realities today
The time is right for online charter school
First, in my view, there couldn’t be a better time for distance education. Online learning that is student-centered, self-directed, independent, and engaging, accessible from anywhere! Yes, families and schools all learned their lessons during the pandemic years and cannot exclude that emergencies will never happen again. And if they do, we’d better be well prepared for them next time around. In the end, many of us realized that reformation and revitalization of children’s education are not a matter of crisis. They’re a matter of new realities that our children have to face in schools, most importantly in the lack of safety.
Even in a such technologically advanced nation like the U.S., all educational processes were not adjusted quickly and efficiently. As a result, the teaching staff faced multiple problems such as heavy workload, slow Internet, and depreciation of both their experience and their work on the part of the parents. Thus the study conducted by researchers at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology revealed negativity of American teachers toward online learning and as we know many parents who had to pull their workloads on top of tutoring their kids were not happy with the lacking educational help either. however, this private online charter education program is beneficial for both sides: parents looking for an alternative way to educate their kids and teachers and tutors interested in assisting them with the K12 learning.
Our promise to students
Our answer and promise are to ensure our kids get a safer, more flexible, more profound, and more personalized education. We have worked hard to accomplish this, and now we have it:
- universal curricula that cater to children from Kindergarten to Grade 12
- highly qualified and motivated teachers, and
- affordable pricing for students the Kindergarten being FREE of charge!
Many families cannot afford the large tuition bills for attending private schools, which is one of the major obstacles for children to attend. We fully understand this and strive to make our school accessible to thousands more families.
Our promise to teachers
Nevertheless, as my neighbors have experienced, it is not all so straightforward. Full-fledged education requires not only a complete set of textbooks but also a Teacher. Textbooks may not be difficult to obtain, but a universal teacher might be more difficult to find. Here at this private school, we provide teachers and tutors to solve the problem of additional workload for busy parents! We offer a fantastic compensation plan for all. For teachers as well as tutors because in our school tutors are a necessity, not a luxury. Because individualized education takes all of these elements, we know these things are crucial for children’s success!
The coronavirus pandemic has forced American teachers to face a unique challenge: educating children while socially distancing and obeying stay-at-home orders. Distance learning has quickly become a viable learning option even if it had been practically nonexistent in school education before the pandemic. No wonder families were eager to know more about online homeschool opportunities that could work well for their needs.
Our online charter school is here to stay
Our learning approach is quite simple. Teachers must receive the resources and support they need to be successful in distance learning. Students in their turn should have access to the technology and materials necessary for quality education. Therefore, with the right support, quality education CAN be provided — and this is exactly what our online charter school offers!
