Today is the kiddos first day of class. The little girl doesn't look happy. She's Kinder 1 Charles Grade 7 and Patrick Grade 5. It seems just yesterday they were at home with me. They're stress reliever. All we do at home is check their activities in their new home and in school.
Their classes are blended . One week online learning then the next week face to face classes. The kiddos prefer online classes especially Charles. They enrolled in Lourdes College. It's near where they live. The kids like in the other school named Georgia University, but the entrance fees and books of the 3 of them almost 190, 000 pesos so expensive, so their dad chose Lourdes College. They paid the entrance and books at 125 , 000. The 3 of them will have 17,000 monthly tuition. There's public school with free tuition but they don't like for there are 75 students in one section.
Education is expensive this time. Agree or not?

@brokenbee, that's tuition in private school elementary level. I graduated my high school in Central Mindanao University Malaybalay City. It's too cold there hehe. Kids this time prefer private schools despite expensive because of the facilities. Rooms air-conditioned.

Although private schools are pricey, they do offer higher-quality education because they give students the best resources for learning. On the other hand, public schools might be good, but because they are free and rely on government money, the facilities and the school itself suffer when providing the level of instruction, the student requires. Additionally, because so many people opt to send their children there, the school will become overcrowded, which lowers the quality of instruction because students are forced to learn in small spaces that may no longer be conducive to learning.

@DevMrSamEleazar, it's a private school in elementary level. It's blended in August online classes, in September face to face classes once a week. From November onward purely face to face classes which the kids don't like. They prefer online classes

@Kandae11 yes kiddos are big niw. Charles age 12 last May birthday and height 5'5" he's so tall. His dad only 5:5 so with his mom. Private schools here are expensive. In Georgia University where kids like to enrol monthly tuition at 10,000 pesos per head so their parents blackout too much.

Lot of students in a online zoom class can be pretty chaotic.

@RandomUser, there are only 25 of them it's in public schools with many students. Public schools are on face to face classes. These kiddos kids of my niece were enrolled in a private school runs by nuns. They're on blended classes.
