Priority #1
Faith Based Learning
Environment
We prioritize glorifying God in all we say and do. All of our program days begin with chapel, and all of our curriculum integrates scripture and a focus on creation. We have opportunities for activities and community outreach that extend beyond the scope of living "just for us".
Priority #2
Quality Education
Homeschooling can be challenging, and oftentimes parents either don't know where to start...or they start and find there are gaps and places where their child might be falling behind. Our program is comprehensive and structured, encompassing all areas of education. Our format is streamlined and designed to keep your homeschool program on track, hitting all areas of the scope & sequence required to keep your children moving forward in an organized and systematic way.
Priority # 3
Family First
Our goal is to relieve homeschool families from some of the pressures that they commonly face- not add more pressure! You can trust us to organize, implement and teach weekly lessons in a fun and engaging way! We trust that as the homeschool parent, you know your child better than anyone else. This means YOU decide how you learn at home. Pick up where we left off in the book with preset assignments, or put your own spin on things with your own hands on lessons. You know what works best for you & your child at home, and we are here to support you!
Priority # 4
Affordability
Our program runs in 6 weeks sessions with the 7th week off for rest. The tuition is a flat rate per session and there are 5 sessions per school year, for a total of 30 weeks. We are PEP Preferred Providers, which means that parents can pay directly through EA, eliminating the hassle of invoices and reimbursements.
Scroll through a typical week at Faith & Family below:
Motivation Monday!
Help your middle and high schoolers start their week off right with Motivation Mondays! Mondays at F&F cover a comprehensive overview of core competencies and topics at the middle and high school levels. Science, labs, high school credit courses- Monday has it all. Let your children follow the pace we set for the week by completing take home activities-or take the reigns yourself and design your own lessons at home! Allow us to take the guess work out of planning, scope and sequence, assessments and transcripts.Tuesdays- Elementary Core
Tuesday is all about academics for grades K-7. Whether your little one is just starting to read in our all-encompassing Kindergarten Program, or you have a big kid who is getting ready to launch into middle school, Tuesdays at F&F has something for everyone. Our classes follow a set scope and sequence with a scaffolding approach- creating a perfect balance of repetition, new material, and review. Our sessions are lively, fun and engaging and ensure that your child remains on track throughout the year.Tuesday- Upper Level Music and Art
What's middle and high school without fun opportunities like music and art? On Tuesdays we host a variety of fun classes where young musicians can develop and refine their music skills, or learn a new instrument in a small group lesson, or participate in choir. Into art? Come join us for a full hour and a half of art! Middle school art will cover the basics of drawing, shading, watercolors & more; while our high school & college level class allows advanced art students (& parents!!) join in on the creative fun!Wednesday- Awesome Electives!
The electives line up at Faith & Family is second to none! Electives are an amazing way to learn about life and the world through fun, hands on experiences! Our electives cover everything from Computer Coding & Game Development, to Botany, Photography, Dance, and everything in-between! Wednesdays are a day full of fun, where homeschool students can make friends, explore new interests, and develop valuable life skills! Click below to see our electives line up for ages 12 & up!Wednesday Dance & Martial Arts- Elementary Level
Looking for an all inclusive program that eliminates afternoon add-ons? Skip the traffic, the late night dinners, and the crazy schedules, and opt for our midweek dance or martial arts program! It's a great way to motivate your kids on "home days" to get that schoolwork done and join their friends for a mid-day class! Classes start at 1:20 and end at 3:20 to get you out the door in time to make dinner and have a relaxing and consistent evening schedule. (Plus, we are located right by the grocery store if you need to squeeze in some mid week grocery shopping!)Thursday- Elementary Extras
Take your homeschool program to the next level with our elementary electives on Thursdays!! From our comprehensive foreign language program, to our incredible art classes, children will be invested and engaged in fun activities all day long, while learning new things and making new friends! Thursdays are a wonderful time where children get to explore talents, develop skills, play outside with one another, and enjoy fun days like "career day", "show and tell day", "bring your pet to school day" & more! Many families chose Thursday extras to motivate and reward their children and celebrate a successful week of homeschool! Come and join the fun! We'd love for everyone to be a part of this!Thursday- Upper Level Electives
But wait! There's more! We have so many fun things to offer our ages 12 & up students, that we had to add on an additional day of electives! Thursday electives cover career exploration and development opportunities in the areas of Criminal Justice, Constitutional Law, Debate, and Early Childhood Education. We also host high school credit foreign language classes and upper level martial arts, for another day of enrichment and learning. Take one, or take them all! You don't have to chose between Wednesday and Thursday either. If your student wants to come both days and do multiple electives, that's great! If they only want one or the other, that's fine too. It's your homeschool program and you chose what works for you. We are here to bring the enrichment and fun, in whatever way works best for your family!Not sure where to start?
That's okay! Our program is all inclusive- which means you get it all. Some parents want 2 days and some want 3 or 4. Tuition covers the cost of all classes- academic, martial arts, dance and electives! All lab fees, materials, curriculum and books are included as well! We are a one stop shop. We are PEP Preferred Providers which means that for PEP Students, 100% of all tuition is fully covered directly by PEP. No bills. No invoices. No haggling with reimbursements. Our tuition is reasonable and leaves plenty left over for extra needs and services that your children deserve. Our sessions run 6 weeks on and we take the 7th week off to rest and have some down time, with extended breaks to allow more family time during the Thanksgiving and Christmas holidays. We bill only one session at a time, which means if you move or can't make it for some reason, you aren't locked in for the whole year. Our enrollment will be limited by the size of our space, and preference for each session will be given to those enrolled first, and then opened to others that want to join in throughout the year. Whatever homeschool co op option you chose, we hope you have a blessed year full of lots of learning, good times, and sweet memories. God bless!

Scope & Sequence & Class Descriptions
Click below for the descriptions for the enrichment sessions offered in our program.
Please note that age 12 is considered elementary. The time your child spends in this program is a critical part of ensuring that no gaps in learning are present before moving to upper level work. All classes are designed to be comprehensive and geared toward the core needs of the children enrolled, and all children will have their needs assessed prior to enrollment to ensure that they are in the correct program level. For this reason, our program uses “levels” instead of “grades”. These levels ensure the proper placement and advancement according to each child’s needs. This is the best way to build a bridge between current knowledge and attaining and mastering new knowledge.
