Train up a child in the way he should go, And when he is old he will not depart from it." Proverbs 22:6

Exciting Changes Happening for Our 4-8 Year Olds This Fall!

We have a great team of motivated moms organizing our Explorers (6-8's) and Scouts (4-6's) and developing a science-based enrichment program for the upcoming fall semester.  This year, lesson plans are in the works that will highlight scientific exploration utilizing the Bible, experimentation, art projects, and music.  They will be studying Water (1st Semester) and the Plant Kingdom (2nd Semester).   The goal will be to use our children’s natural desire to explore God's Creation to point them to Christ.  The same unit study and activities developed for our older Explorers will be adapted for the younger Scouts.

How Is Horizons Different From Other Homeschool and Indpendent Study Programs?

These days, there are a great number of academic opportunities for homeschooling through various Independent Study and Charter programs. So, why choose Horizons Homeschool Ministry?


Well, we recognize that there are as many approaches to homeschooling as there are people who take that journey.  Horizons tries to address many different needs for many different people in three different ways: The Family Co-op, Horizons High Classes, and General Enrichment Classes. In all options, God is the head.

The Horizons Homeschool Ministry does not provide, require, or advocate any particular curriculum or approach. We do not offer any recordkeeping services, evaluation or testing. How families choose to home school and what materials they choose to use at home is completely in the hands of parents.

What we offer goes beyond basic academics - we minister to hearts as well as minds.  We recognize that Christ is included every aspect of life, including education. And, the benefits of fellowship experienced by kids AND parents in the Family Co-op has been absolutely priceless, giving families much needed support and encouragement on this challenging path.

"I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me."
Philippians 4:13
