Homeschooling has become much more common and mainstream in the last decade, but thanks to Covid, the numbers have soared in the last 12 months. Nationwide, the number of homeschoolers is expected to jump about 10%, from 2.50 million to roughly 2.75 million.
Are you a new or potential homeschooler? It can feel overwhelming at first, but let me assure you... homeschooling can be (and is, for my family) very rewarding!
Luckily for us here in the Denver area, we have some amazing resources available to help us out.
The Brighton Options homeschool enrichment program is here for just that. Located at 11401 E. 160th Avenue in Brighton, the program is a one day/week public option for your kids to attend in-person and attend classes that you might not have the means or talent to cover at home.
Class examples (subject to change) are 🍳 Cooking, 🎹 Piano, 💪🏻 Anatomy, 🧘♀️ Yoga, 🧮 Math Games, 🧪 Chemistry... the list goes on!
Program Coordinator Sharon Gore speaks to her philosophy of the Brighton Options Program: "As a former homeschool mom and as a former elementary school counselor I know the importance of providing a FUN, social, engaging enrichment program for homeschool students. This is a main focus for us here at Options!"
