Looking for some help re: Orange County, CA charter schools?

[Um_2_4]

PLEASE DO NOT QUOTE, I MAY DELETE LATER! THANKS!

I have a friend in OC who needs to homeschool her DS ( he is currently in 7th through connections academy, not working) She needs help, I suggested she look into charter schools ( the ones that give you x$ per student per year for classes and books). She is overwhelmed. She needs a tutor for him for math and LA. She has a 3rd grader in private now, a 4yo who is in a wheelchair ( born missing part of brain) and a 1 yo.

Anyone can tell me about some of these charters, recommend one??

I know nothing about them as I use a PSA.

I think she is hoping he might pick a career field and look for a votech program after HS. So right now sh eis not too concerned about AP classes or college prep.

If he could take his math and english classes live or have a math tutor, that would be huge!

She doesn' t mind driving him around for classes.

You can post here or PM me, please any help would be appreciated!

I know of a great one day a week school in Chino Hills if you're interested. I grew up in Fullerton, very close to Brea, and I am about 15 minutes from the Brea Mall if you know where that is. I don't know if that's what you're looking for - it is not a daily school and it is not free.

 

I also know of a great math tutor, but I drive dd out to Corona for that.

Here's a list of charter options in that area

I believe the following schools are more generous wrt funding. I would recommend visiting their website and looking at the vendors to see if there are tutors that meet her needs.
