Who we are
Pine Haven Homeschool Enrichment Program was created to support families who desire a joyful, community-driven homeschooling experience. We believe education is most meaningful when it blends curiosity, connection, and character. Our program provides opportunities for students to learn in a group setting while maintaining the flexibility and values of home education.
At Pine Haven, parents and instructors work together to create a positive, nurturing environment where children feel seen, supported, and inspired. Our classes encourage exploration through hands-on learning, creative expression, and collaboration with peers.
We are more than a co-op—we are a community of families walking alongside one another, sharing resources, friendships, and a love for lifelong learning. Pine Haven is a place where students grow in both confidence and curiosity, and parents find encouragement and belonging on the homeschooling journey.
