Learning Center At A Glance:

Click above for the Learning Center schedules, and here for course descriptions.
Learning Centers provide enrichment workshops for Homeschool, Journey High School, Montessori Voyage, and Venture. The schedules vary by location and student interests and needs. The Learning Center helps families connect with other independent learning students to create a strong support system. Families enjoy the non-traditional choice of independent study while benefiting from time-honored school activities. Many of our locations participate in activities such as school pictures, yearbooks, open houses, and the opportunity to perform or compete as a group. Through events, outreach, activities, and guest speakers, learning center students use the community as the classroom throughout the year.
One or two days per week, workshops that are offered include favorites such as Hands-on Science, Math, and Art, as well as new choices each year. Many of our TK-8 locations have performance classes, such as Musical Theater, and classes involving the community such as FIRST Lego League. We often hear that the lives of our students are changed because of the friendships they have made here and the academic support they’ve received. Adding from Schedules
The Learning Center schedule is full of classes that offer hands-on, engaging activities that make learning fun! Students can choose classes that cater to their passion and interest and/or choose classes that meet specific academic goals.
