Want to enroll? Spots are still open for our Fall semester, starting August 19th!

Due to overwhelming interest, we’re opening a new full-time class and hiring another teacher—which means additional spots are now available for students to join our one-of-a-kind learning community. These openings are limited to K–8 full-time students only. Our High School and 1–2 day homeschool programs remain completely full for the 2025–26 school year. If your child falls into a full age group, you may join the waitlist here.
Update 2 (Homeschool 1–2 Day Program):
Enrollment is now closed for the 1–2 day homeschool program. You may still join the waitlist here in case openings become available.
