3. “Before we decided to attempt IS, I thought 'absolutely not
“Before we decided to attempt IS, I thought 'absolutely not.' I went to the Instructional Meeting and found out that it just might work for our family. We gave it a try, and we ended up loving the program! While we hope to get into the full-time program, IS is a great way to make the transition into the full-time program....same rigorous standards and excellent non-core classes. My family enjoyed the flexibility, and my kids were able to still feel a part of the OPA family. I would highly recommend the program to anyone considering it. Just be prepared to work hard with your kids, and be prepared to love spending the extra time with them! This program definitely brought us closer as a family, and I truly enjoyed teaching my children. It was amazing to see the progress they made, and I feel so honored to have been a part of their academic education!”

5. “Coming from a private school, we were a little skeptical of what OPA could do for our kids. We quickly became fans of Mrs. Roche and the way she, along with her staff, have designed the learning system, classes and programs. We receive more at OPA than we ever did at Private School.”

8. “Signing up for OPA's IS program was a scary but great step I have made. Being my son's own teacher has been a fulfilling experience on many levels, plus the IS workshops and non-core classes have added plenty of opportunities for Jack to socialize. OPA provides a quality IS program, which is clearly set out and easy to follow. It's been so interesting to have a real insight into Jack's academic life and I feel very lucky for spending all this extra time with him. The IS program has given me the flexibility to customize the instructions to meet Jack's needs, which in return has given Jack a well rounded education. Thank you OPA.”
