What is Harmony?
Harmony offers a "comprehensive" homeschooling community for homeschoolers grades preK-9 in the NE Illinois area offering:
-
affordable drop-off classes
-
flexible scheduling
-
social opportunities
-
weekday hours
-
community/support
-
and more...all in one place!
Who is it for?
This secular community center is for all homeschooling families (PreK-9th grade) interested in belonging to an enriching, non-faith-based community. This is for people interested in and committed to building a kindness-focused, welcoming community built on acceptance of all backgrounds.
In the works...
Longterm goal: A stand-alone dedicated center with a cornucopia of opportunities
Immediate plans: We rent an inviting space in Palatine so we can meet some needs & begin building our special community!
Why Harmony Instead?
-
See the same kids all the time--build lasting relationships
-
Stop driving all over the planet for classes/lessons/activities - save time & money
-
Siblings of different ages can all be enrolled at the same time
-
Gives parents a usable break
-
A "drop-off" experience on your terms- "the best of both worlds"
-
More affordable & flexible than private school
-
Your values shared and prioritized: kindness, respect, acceptance, diversity
-
Class quality you can rely on with qualified leadership
-
Ease of scheduling & consistency vs. cobbling together a piecemeal schedule on your own
-
Sense of pride and belonging vs. "just a class."
