Families

Your children

Center for Redemptive Education programs exist to help you educate your own children. The programs provide homeschooling families with professional educators and curricula in sync with your values and with your love for your children.

This page outlines the four distinctives of a Redemptive Education: biblical, relational, integral and experiential.

Biblical

Redemptive Education teaches your child to examine all ideas in light of the truth of Scripture. What is it that aligns with God's Word? Where does it diverge from His truth? What can we learn from this and how can we apply it to our lives?

Relational

Instead of expecting children to conform to institutional demands or mass-produced learning requirements, we foster a community that prizes the uniqueness of each individual child, who is made in the image of God. Our morning Welcoming gathers together children of all ages who heartily sing classic hymns, eagerly participate in discussions and sincerely pray for one another and those in need.

Integral

Rather than adopting traditional artificial silos of subjects, we see many subjects at play all at once in the real world. A simple project of building a wigwam in the forest, for example, can employ engineering and math, a study of Native American culture, instruction in survival skills, reading early American poetry, learning about the flora and fauna of the surroundings, and so much more.

Experiential

One of the best ways to learn is by doing. Our emphasis on experiential learning means your child learns more than facts and theories; our students learn how to apply facts and theories in real world experiences. We also highly value initiative, and our students will often create and direct their own experiential projects.
