After years of home lessons and private tutors, two of Michael Jackson’s children have begun attending school for the first time, reports TMZ.
Prince Michael, 13, and Paris Jackson, 12, was in attendance for their first day on Wednesday at an exclusive private school in Los Angeles, whose former students include the likes of Paris Hilton, former “Friends” actor Matthew Perry and singer Natalie Cole, the website reports.
The youngest, the eight-year-old known as Blanket, will continue to be home-schooled for the time being.
The King of Pop’s mother Katherine, who has custody of the three children, said in a June interview that she planned to send the once-sheltered children to school this fall. The eldest, Prince, wanted a more social experience growing up.
Jackson, who died suddenly in June 2009, had kept his children secluded from outsiders, often having them wear veils when out in public.
Fees for The Buckley School in the San Fernando Valley area of Los Angeles range from $25,000 to $29,000 a year, according to the school’s website.
