The Modular Study Group
Keeping families in the field serving effectively since 2007
Students in the MSG program are challenged to use college level methods while completing their Middle and High School requirements.
Students work at home for three weeks a month and attend the campus one week a month. This allows families to remain together longer while providing an opportunity for the children to grow relationally and in responsibility for themselves.
A new Idea
Since the idea was discovered in 2004 the MSG has been growing. It is our goal to multiply this model of study groups to serve families all across Asia.
1/4 = 1/2
Students come to the MSG location one week a month for an intense education in Math, Science and English. Students return home for three weeks to complete assignments. We like to say you get 1/2 of your education for only 1/4 of your time.
Safe And Secure
Students board with MSG-approved providers and we adhere to the highest level of child protection standards. All the MSG schools are members of the Child Safety and Protection Network.
Multiple Locations
The MSG is in a growth phase and is open to planting a study group in your area if the need exists. Currently we have seven locations that are functioning.
