• Practical Schooling

    Schoolhouse Feel. Comfort of Home.

  • Welcome!

    Hi, I'm Jacque Merville, a certified teacher and dedicated homeschool mom. Before becoming a mom, I taught elementary students at a Christian Private School. Through welcoming five children of my own, I've watched my love for teaching grow right along with them over the years. Each of them has unique gifts and abilities, requiring different schooling solutions in different seasons.

    With a desire to help families provide their children a quality early education, along with understanding and respect for the individuality and creativity of every child, I have opened up our home to provide local learning support to a small, select group of students. After a thorough interview and matching process to ensure our families are a good fit for each other, I welcome your child into our home between the hours of 8:30 a.m and 2:30 p.m. to learn alongside my own children. The result is a small, personal schoolhouse feel, within the comfort of home.

    Playground

    Fresh air and a safe place to play outdoors are vital to a good day of school. Your child can practice the monkey bars, swing, slide, climb, and imagine in the backyard fort playground!

  • Tuition & Fees

    Our school calendar runs four days per week from August through June, eleven months of the year, with summer break in July. Your one-time $500 Initial Student Setup Fee, due upon enrollment, includes consumable books, classroom supplies, and his/her personal cubby. Ongoing tuition for your child's care and instruction is $720 monthly. That's just $45 per day!

    With Practical Schooling, your child will enjoy a diverse array of enrichment activities including Computers, Art, Physical Education, Robotics & Coding, S.T.E.A.M and Cooking. The enrichment fee is already built into the monthly tuition. You can breathe a sigh of relief knowing I'll be responsible for procuring the exact needed supplies without you as a parent having to hunt all over town and the internet to fill your child's supply list. I want to make it as easy as possible for you, and also keep our exciting calendar of activities and events running smoothly.
