Value
What is the value you would place on your teen's life? Think hard about the answer to this question. Is it $1,000 or $10,000 or $1,000,000? Is there any price you could place on your teen's life? In the next 50 years, how much will your teen contribute to your family and society? Will he or she become a senator, a president, found a successful nonprofit corporation? While we all hope that our children will live to their greatest potential, more often than not, it doesn't happen. You want to give your teen the best chance they can at achieving their dreams.
Attending Red River Academy for a year will cost about the same as a luxury sedan. When all is said and done though, the only thing you have left in your life is your family. If your life is in shambles, your work a chaotic mess or your teenager's life is crumbling before your eyes, your worldly possessions no longer mean anything.
