Questions, answered

The things families ask before they start.

What’s the difference between Seed and Bloom, honestly?

Seed is the complete curriculum for one child — lessons, daily guidance, and your weekly plan. Bloom adds your second child, their Learning Twin, subject-by-subject pacing, on-demand activities, and ESA records. Start with Seed if you’re teaching one; choose Bloom when your family is growing.

Do my kids need accounts?

No child accounts. Ever. RubyLou is a tool for you.

What if we have more than two children?

Bloom and Garden include your first two children; each additional child is $79/yr — their own level, pace, and plan. Seed covers one child, so a second child means moving up to Bloom.

Can we switch plans mid-year?

Yes — upgrade any time and pay the difference; everything RubyLou has learned about your children comes with you.

What about high school?

The High School Track (+$149/yr) adds transcript-ready planning and credit tracking on any plan.

What if it’s not for us?
