Homeschool Together

We are here to bring joy to your homeschooling experience.

Our enrichment school was created to provide instruction beyond the core academic subjects. Students at Hillside gather together to experience an immersive learning environment rooted in Bible, geography, history, social studies and the arts.

Our mission is to create a weekly Christ-centered community for students and their families. Teacher led, interactive lessons and activities are provided, as well as ample time for play and nature exploration. Our hope is that our students will grow, play and learn in goodness, beauty and truth.

“Education is an atmosphere, a discipline, a life.”

Charlotte Mason

Life at Hillside
