  • To support the larger vision God has placed on our hearts, we need to have the ability to save for our future independent location and we can’t do it on our own.

    We are building towards a space that can serve more families and hire additional teachers to lead co-hort style, Christ-centered microschools that range from K-8. It would be our dream to have a school house on land that is secure and safe for all our learners, while providing them outdoor space to play and explore.
