Boundless Explorers is a faith-based homeschool cooperative that meets weekly to provide enrichment classes, community experiences, and field trips rooted in Biblical values.

What age groups do you serve?

We currently offer classes for Nursery/Preschool (with an enrolled attendee) through high school (6th grade and up). All ages rotate through engaging classes that match their development level.

Do parents do the teaching?

Classes vary each semester but have included Science, STEM, Book Club, Art, Crafts, Unplugged Play, and Culture & Cuisine. All content is taught from a Biblical worldview.

Are there any other costs?

Families may be asked to bring materials or contribute to occasional field trips. We keep costs as low as possible by sharing responsibilities and resources.
