JOURNEY HOMESCHOOL CO-OP
Raising a family takes a village! We want to partner with your family every step of the way.
Journey at Desert Breeze Community is all about fostering a safe space for Kingdom families to grow together while meeting the social and academic needs of their children.
COMMON QUESTIONS
-
To partner alongside parents and guardians to create a Biblically grounded community for social and academic learning.
-
Homeschool cooperatives function well because everyone pitches in.
While students attend classes, parents/guardians share tasks: set-up, cleaning, classroom support roles, and teaching classes.
-
ANYONE with kids! We offer a range of classes geared towards elementary through high school aged students. Parent volunteers provide childcare for younger kids.
Although Journey meets at a church, you do not have to attend Desert Breeze Community Church to join. We do ask all families to read and agree to our Statement of Beliefs during the enrollment process. As a Christian community, we want to ensure we ensure we agree on core beliefs, if even we have different views on non-essentials.
