my son goes to a church campus twice weekly with a highly educated core of Christian/Classical learned teachers...many are classical scholars (Rice PHD’s or Houston Baptist University alumni and/or missionaries). The avg class size is 15-5 students due to pandemic...slightly more pre-pandemic. They read only original works...St Thomas Aquinas, Dante, Martin Luther,etc..lots of papers and required Latin.
Must wear suit/tie on campus days. Chapel in the AM & also choir. No PE but they have cross-country and other Eloquim classes after school for extra. Must memorize 45-60 points of history to be recalled on a dime. Lots of poetry memory work as well. He will graduate in 2 years. about 5K per year. Parent is “co-teacher” during other 3 weekdays following the leasson plans online.

Great start. Hopefully a consortium of your type of organization could lead to a private credentialing organization...apart from idiotic governmental guidelines and get into higher education...such as private trade schools...or colleges and universities. Good luck.
