Guest guest Posted April 15, 2012 Report Share Posted April 15, 2012 My son loved the Koala School. He went there for grades 9 and half of 10. The socialization is great and there is a psychiatrist there at all times. It is a small classroom environment, or you can do it virtually. The courses are pretty difficult though so be aware of that. It costs about $8,500 per year, but I liked sending him there. You can go there and observe them. Good luck and let us know how it goes for your child. Sandy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted April 15, 2012 Report Share Posted April 15, 2012 Here's a link to McKay participating schools. I did not see the Koala School listed by that name.

Guest guest Posted April 16, 2012 Report Share Posted April 16, 2012 I stopped sending my son because it was getting less affordable for us. Plus we had other family issues going on. Ari was ready to go back to public school anyway. He grew a lot (physically) and he was goofing off too much at Koala. Sandy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted April 16, 2012 Report Share Posted April 16, 2012 Koala is a National chain of For-Profit private schools that offer 1:1 tutoring in addition to Virtual programs. They serve grades 3-12 If you google "Koala School Broward Florida" you can also see how families reviewed it.
