Homeschool MODEL
Behold is a drop off educational enrichment program, with small ratios that are broken into age and level groups. Our lower school is ages 5-9, and our upper school is ages 9-12.
Our homeschool education model is considered eclectic. We are biblically grounded and Charlotte Mason inspired, while also implementing some best practices from other admired learning models.
"Behold,
I am doing
a new thing..."
SUBJECTS & CURRICULUM
FOCUS
Our main focuses at Behold are biblical discipleship and student growth in critical thinking, leadership, and creativity. We utilize discussion groups, hands on projects, and inquiry based curriculums to help students grow in the above skills, while also encouraging a love of learning and equipping them to become self motivated learners. Instruction at Behold is designed to complement students’ at-home learning experience, not completely replace it.
