Parents today are faced with a wide, often bewildering variety of choices for educating their children, from traditional public schools to private schools, from Christian schools to home schooling. The Handbook on Choosing Your Child’s Education will help parents navigate through the many options and based on their needs, make the best education decision for their children.

Parents with young children trying to decide what option in their community is best for their child’s education. It’s particularly helpful for families who have just moved, and also for parents whose children are already in school and are possibly struggling. Useful features include a checklist to determine individual pros & cons for each child, reproducible worksheets, a resource list, and FAQs. Also includes information on special needs as well as gifted children.
