There are several exciting opportunities happening around Grants Pass in the way of Homeschool support. One, Covered Bridge Academy, a local Christian Homeschool Cooperative, which was launched last fall, is offering four more classes this fall. Their goals are to Develop Christian Character, Pursue Academic Excellence and Enjoy Delightful Collaboration. Classes are being offered once a week by homeschool parents, primarily Dads, to augment subjects being taught at home.
Another opportunity is Classical Conversations, which is a national Christian organization that equips parents and students with the classical tools of learning needed to discover the order and beauty of God's creation. This fall will be the beginning of a Grants Pass CC Community. They also will meet once a week where parents, with their children, will be mentored by a trained tutor.
Both of these groups see the parents as the central teachers of their children, and often parents need assistance in this awesome responsibility. That's why these two groups are being promoted to the Grants Pass Homeschool Community. As a Christian community we have opportunities to show the love of Christ to one another and learn about God's world together. In the process may we be a witness to our City for our Lord Jesus Christ.
