The afterschool period includes snacks, physical activity, sports training, and optional academic support for students who may need extra help with assignments.

How is student progress tracked?

Student progress is monitored through a combination of assignments, projects, participation, and regular academic reviews. Because our learning environment is smaller, students receive more individualized guidance throughout the day, allowing us to better understand their strengths and areas where additional support may be needed.

Parents will receive updates about their child’s progress and can communicate directly with Ms. Tea if they have questions about their student’s development.

Do students receive grades or report cards?

Our goal is to ensure that students are building strong academic foundations while also developing confidence in their abilities.

Can my child return to public school after attending the micro school?

Yes. Many families choose alternative learning environments for a period of time to help their child rebuild confidence, strengthen academic skills, or receive more support.

If a family later decides to return to a traditional school setting, we maintain academic records that can help support that transition.

Tuition for the micro school program is $550 per month per student.

This tuition supports the learning environment, materials, resources, and instruction provided throughout the school year.

Additional programs such as tutoring or special camps may have separate fees.

Additional details are included in the parent handbook.

While we are not a special education program, we do take time to understand each student's learning style and work with parents to create a learning environment that supports their child's growth and success.

Do you review IEP or 504 plans?

Yes. If a student has an existing IEP or 504 plan, we review those documents to better understand how the student learns and what types of support have helped them in the past.

While Ms. Tea's Learning Studio is not a special education program, understanding a student's learning needs helps us provide a more supportive environment.

How many students are in each class?

Ms. Tea's Learning Studio intentionally maintains small class sizes so that students can receive more individual attention and support throughout the day.

We also provide access to a parent portal where families can stay connected with announcements, resources, and school updates.

What happens if my child struggles academically?

Students who need additional support may receive extra guidance during the school day. Because our learning studio maintains small class sizes, we are able to provide more individualized attention than many traditional classroom settings.

When needed, we may also recommend additional tutoring support to help students strengthen their academic skills.

How are discipline and behavior handled?

Our learning environment focuses on structure, clear expectations, and accountability. Students are expected to respect their peers, participate in learning activities, and follow the guidelines outlined in the student handbook.

When behavior concerns arise, we work with both the student and their parents to address the situation and help the student develop better habits and decision-making skills.

Our goal is to guide students toward positive behavior while maintaining a safe and respectful learning environment.

What if my child has trouble focusing or staying on task?

Many students benefit from smaller learning environments where teachers have more time to provide guidance and support. Clear routines, structured learning blocks, and individualized attention often help students stay more engaged throughout the day.

We also work with parents to better understand each student’s learning style and identify strategies that help them succeed.

What makes Ms. Tea’s Learning Studio different from traditional schools?

Ms. Tea’s Learning Studio provides a smaller learning environment where students receive more attention, guidance, and encouragement throughout the day.

Rather than large classrooms where teachers must divide their attention among many students, our learning studio allows for more individualized support, hands-on learning opportunities, and meaningful connections between students and their instructor.
