We do provide classes and workshops that allow your child to take part in unique learning experiences, however you as the parent remain in full control of your child’s education.

  • No, Arise is a community of families who are learning together. Every child must have a legal guardian present.

  • Arise offers a wide range of learning opportunities for all ages, including parents! As a member you will have access to everything we offer, including the curriculum and materials in our resource library. Our teachers are community members not hired staff, so the classes and pricing will vary from year to year.

  • You can sign your child up for as many learning experiences and events as you would like.

  • All of our teachers go through an extensive interview process, and are thoroughly vetted before they teach at Arise. We do not require our teachers to be to be certified.

  • Parents, and those with a passion to teach. We believe children learn best from parents and teachers who are teaching from their passions.

  • We charge a $100 Annual Membership Fee per family. Membership gives you automatic access to our Homeschool Resource Library, and everything we offer through our center. The prices for our classes, workshops and events will vary each term depending on individual teacher rates, material costs, etc. You choose how many and what classes you sign up for, so ultimately you control the cost.

  • Parents are required to be on premises, but are not required to teach or volunteer. We do however highly encourage parents and students to invest in the Arise community by giving back in some capacity. Our goal as a homeschool resource center is to empower parents and students to rise up as leaders who serve. We offer various opportunities and ways you can be involved while at the center.

  • Although most of our classes and community are during the typical school day, we do offer classes and events outside of “school hours” that will allow you to attend and be a part of our community.

  • We created Arise for homeschool families who want a moral and Godly community in which to raise their children. We are not a church and therefore our SOF is based on basic Bible doctrines. We are very transparent about those doctrines and the culture we strive to provide at our center. In order to retain and provide this culture for our community we do ask that our members not actively contradict our SOF while at or representing Arise Resource Center.
