Mimi Rothschild Sees Growth for Homeschooling Programs

Feb. 17, 2009 - PRLog -- Mimi Rothschild, founder of a leading Christian-based home schooling program, has announced preparations for anticipated growth during the next 12 to 18 months. An estimated 1 million families are currently homeschooling children in the United States and this number is expected to sharply rise in the coming years. As a result, Mimi Rothschild and her team are adding curriculum and additional options for those that will be implementing home school curriculums.

“We’re anticipating an increase in enrollment and will be implementing new features to give additional options to parents and educators,” says Mimi Rothschild, founder of Learning By Grace, an online academy and leading provider of Pre-K-12 homeschooling programs.

“The added material will help offer more flexibility for enrollees,” Rothschild adds.

With over twenty years of experience in the home school industry, Mimi Rothschild founded Learning By Grace in 2001 as a way to offer a Christ-centered education to students all over the world. Since their inception, Rothchild’s home school programs have been used by tens-of-thousands of families worldwide.

Through comprehensive online support, students learn at their own pace, where they are free from negative peer influences, distractions and rigid educational environments commonly found in the public school systems.  

“Many schools treat education as a one-size-fits-all solution,” notes Mimi Rothschild. “But there needs to be more of an individualized approach and that’s what our home school programs are able provide.”

There is also statistical evidence that home schooled children fair much better academically than traditional public school students. A 1997 study entitled, "Strengths of Their Own: Home Schoolers Across America," found that home schooled children, on average, outperformed public school students by 30 to 37 percentile points in all subjects.

Mimi Rothschild says these findings, and others like them, will only serve to reinforce strong enrollment in home school programs in the years to come.

Through comprehensive multimedia content, audio-video programs, workbooks and interactive field trips, Mimi Rothschild is anticipating her programs will continue helping countless families and educators in the United States and around the world.
