About Us
A single seed can spark a forest
Gear Up Homeschoolers is a homeschooling social group that provides a safe and inclusive environment for all homeschoolers. We use the Warner community building for classes, as well as the playground in the back. Every Friday, children enjoy activities and social time in a wide variety of topics including:
- science
- art
- music
- crafts
- history
- entrepreneurship
- and fun games!
We welcome children to bring their passions to life and encourage them to share their discoveries, interests, and knowledge by teaching their peers.

Our goal is to provide children with rich educational experiences in a warm and accepting environment. Our programming is secular while respecting everyone’s right to believe what they choose. We strive to be a community that helps one another and embraces this wonderful homeschool journey we are all on.
History
In 2013, a group of Kearsarge area homeschoolers decided to create an enrichment cooperative for local families and students. In order to keep things organized, we soon developed the Executive Committee that was tasked with taking care of Gear Up business. In 2015, we incorporated into a non-profit and our Executive Committee became the Board of Directors.
