Homeschool Microschool
All of our students are declared homeschoolers by the state of Wyoming but they have designated this program to provide some or all of the instruction.
A microschool is a small-scale, independent educational setting that typically serves a limited number of students across different grade levels. Homestead Learning serves 15 students daily in both full time and part time capacities.
Love For Learning
We believe that a well educated person is one who chases their curiosity with passion and enthusiasm.
Encouraging this experience is a central goal that we pursue at Homestead Learning.
What does it look like?
A supportive, flexible homeschool.
​
We join together every morning for reading or socratic discussion and then spread out into groups or individually to work on core academics.
We value a long, flexible lunch break where the children can cook their meals, play outside or take a rest when needed.
The afternoons are dedicated to projects and skill building until it’s time to clean up and head home.
