Students and Schools
Students are enrolled between Kindergarten
and Grade 4. We look for students who are willing to do their
best in school, and parents who value education and are willing
to make the extra effort necessary in private schools. Parents
agree to get their children to school on time, supervise homework
and projects, and provide lunch and transportation. The
parents choose the school they would like their child to attend.
In 2008-2009 school year, we have 105 students from 72 families
attending 33 schools.

capacity to effectively educate at-risk children. These "non-public"
schools include independent private schools, Catholic Diocesan
schools and private Christian schools.
