Before the Call (5-10 Minutes)
There are no requirements ahead of this call. That said, a few things can help the conversation go smoothly:
Open the Learning Plan and note anything that surprised you
Jot down 3-5 priorities for your child (e.g., "close reading gaps," "keep math accelerated")
List any questions you have about the program
What to Expect
Every family's conversation is different. Your Program Advisor will tailor the discussion to what matters most to you, but topics that come up most often include:
Your goals for your child and any scheduling or lifestyle constraints
What the Learning Plan results actually mean in plain language
What the first few weeks look like (daily routine, time commitment, tech setup)
How billing and onboarding work
Whether now is the right time to enroll
Common Questions Parents Ask on the Call
Where does my child start? We use the diagnostic results to identify strengths and gaps. After enrollment, your child goes through a Discovery and Knowledge Gap Filling process (typically 1-2 weeks) that confirms exactly where they are in each subject before formal placement begins.
What if the diagnostic results look off? It happens. Fatigue, rushing, or distractions can all affect scores. The Discovery process after enrollment will clear up any inaccuracies, so there's no need for retesting.
How long to reach grade level? It depends on gap size and consistency. Small gaps typically close in 6-10 weeks. Larger gaps usually take a few months.
Is "2 hours a day" realistic? Yes, when it's focused time. Most families run four blocks of roughly 25 minutes with short breaks. Consistency matters more than long sessions.
How does billing work? After the call, you'll set up your payment method through EduPaid in your Parent Portal. If you're using an ESA, there's an additional step of purchasing through your state's ESA marketplace. Your Program Advisor will walk you through whichever path applies to you.
What about learning differences, travel, or special circumstances? These are exactly the kinds of things your Program Advisor is there to discuss. Bring any questions or concerns and they'll help you figure out how the program fits your family's specific situation.
After the Call
If enrolling: Complete consents, set up payment through EduPaid (ESA families will also purchase through their state marketplace), receive student credentials, and schedule the student onboarding session.
If waiting: We'll note any open items and set a check-in date.
If it's not a fit right now: Keep your Learning Plan. You're welcome back whenever circumstances change.
