Oaks of Righteousness: Grades 7-9

Strong roots. Wide branches

 
 

Welcome!

Thank you so much for your interest in the OAKS of Righteousness Middle Years Program for grades 7-8, and now with a grade 9 High School component! We are honored to continue the work that began in the Seeds program as we shepherd children into young adulthood through the arts in an integrated, non-traditional way. We continue to uphold a Biblical-worldview in our exploration and understanding of the arts, science, and history, while giving the students discipleship and leadership opportunities. If you are new to The Well Center for the Arts, then welcome!


Why this approach?

Independent and in-depth study of the Bible, Literature, History; engaging studies in the Arts and Sciences

As parents, artists, and educators, we designed this two-day program to serve as a hybrid experience for students in grades 7-9; encouraging families to continue creatively homeschooling their middle-school/high-school aged children, while at the same time giving their kids the opportunity to grow in their independence. Students develop into their teen years with other homeschooling children in a safe, loving, and God-glorifying environment. This hybrid approach, also gives interested homeschooling parents:

  • the opportunity of having their children learn subjects that they may not normally cover during their own homeschooling time.

  • the time to work on other projects or support other children at home.

  • the confidence and support that first-time homeschooling families may need.
