We are a hybrid homeschool program, which means parents will be taking an active role in teaching their children. During the three days off-campus, your role isn't simply to monitor your child while they "do homework", but to be prepared by reviewing the day's lessons and utilizing the teacher handbooks.

Generally, we tell people to consider homeschooling in this manner your part-time job. While some students are quite self-sufficient, and may be able to make it through assignments independently, the parent's involvement and oversight as a teacher and as a support system is crucial for optimal learning and development.
