What you’ll find
Opportunity
We encourage our students to teach a class on any topic they like. The experience gives the kids the confidence to speak and present in front of their peers. What sorts of things do they teach? We’ve had classes on puppet shows, making videos, trading card games, crayon art, drawing animals, and making pillows!
Friendships
Our students often say what they love most about Gear Up is the friends they make. Our format allows plenty of time for students to get to know one another, including dedicated social time at the end of each day, special event parties and field trips.
Community
Homeschooling can be a lonely prospect. But it doesn’t have to be. One of our missions at Gear Up is to provide a place where all homeschoolers are welcome in a secular environment that honors all learning styles and beliefs. We do this by providing enrichment courses and a social outlet on a consistent basis as well as group activities such as Fall Foliage Festival, community service and holiday parties
