WHAT IS A MICROSCHOOL OR HYBRID (ETC)?
Regardless of how a group refers to themselves, they must abide by our company terms and definitions in order to be in compliance with law.
A hybrid school, as defined within this discounted license, is a school that is not a private school but:
- Charges a tuition
OR - Charges a class fee to students above $20
OR - Exchanges funds for teachers
OR - Is ongoing multiple days of the week
WHAT DOES A HYBRID LICENSE PROVIDE, AND WHEN IS IT REQUIRED?
Our hybrid license also adjusts the terms of copyright, so that it can be used legally in a group setting, as the units are otherwise copyrighted for use within your individual family only.
WHAT YOU MIGHT BE USED TO
Did you know that many companies advertise a small fee for their hybrid or co-op programs, but often include hidden costs? Typically, their policies might require:
- Every student in the classroom must purchase the product at full price.
- An additional ‘small’ fee per student (let’s say $3 for “additional licensing”) is then added to each purchase.
While they promote these as minor charges and cite a $3 cost, in reality, it burdens every student with the full cost of the product, plus extra fees.
CAMPFIRE TAKES A DIFFERENT APPROACH
With Campfire:
- Only the teacher needs to buy the curriculum once.
- Every student in the classroom enjoys utilizing the curriculum at a substantial discount of 50% OFF the regular price.
This model not only simplifies costs but also makes educational resources more accessible and affordable for all students.
The teacher is the one with access to the materials and can print/screencast as desired!
DO THE MATH
Assume a $30 cost of material and 20 students.
In scenario 1 (some other curricula setups), your cost to use in a microschool or hybrid is:
*****$690***** ($30 x 21 total people + $3 license x 20 students)
In Campfire, your license is to use in a microschool or hybrid setup is:
*****$330***** ($30 x 1 teacher + $15/student x 20 students)
