Christian Homeschool Enrichment Programs: Nurturing Faith, Discipleship Knowledge, and Community
Christian Homeschool Education Center: A Beacon of Support for Homeschooling Families
At the heart of our community is the Christian Homeschool Education Center, a full-time establishment dedicated to empowering homeschool families. As a non-profit ministry, our mission is to infuse homeschooling with joy, grounded in Godly principles, and aimed at making education free for all children. We sustain this vision through the generosity of donations and the active participation of our community.
Beyond just academics, we provide a nurturing environment where children can flourish socially, emotionally, and spiritually. Our team of seasoned educators, brimming with passion and dedication, focuses on unlocking every child's unique potential. In addition to financial contributions, we encourage parents to donate one hour per month at CHEC, fostering a collaborative and supportive community.
Whether you're embarking on your homeschooling journey or have been navigating this path for years, our doors are always open. We stand as a steadfast partner in education, not just as a resource, but as a community pillar, advocating for free access to quality education, supported by the collective efforts and contributions of our families.
