You should be able to enroll him in public school.  You will need a copy of his birth certificate, proof of residency (an utility bill) and maybe some other paperwork.  Public school is free and are generally good school depending on where you live.  Research the schools before you send him.  When you are moving to the area, ask neighbors, real estate agents or colleagues about area schools.  No matter where he goes, you are his best teacher.

Yes you can enroll him in public school and it's free!  If you choose a private school then it'll cost you depending on the school.  Do you know the area where you're moving to?  Here's a website to help you find out information about schools and the communities in the US.

Answer 5

We have free public education. Some places cover pre-school and kindergarden, but they all provide free education from grade one thru 12. Quality varies from area to area. Check with realtors or others for the good areas. The school years starts in August or September.
