Education is not one-size-fits-all. This panel of experienced parents have navigated that path to find a variety of educational options that range from homeschooling, to charter schools, to private schools, and to online education. They have also addressed special learning needs for their children such as learning disabilities, delayed learning, and gifted. Come discuss school-aged children's needs with people who approached their children's education as "each one best.”
