At Tandem Home Education, we boldly stand as a Christian drop-off co-op, unapologetically rooted in our belief in the Bible. We uphold the conviction that every individual is created in God’s image, with a distinct purpose and divine plan for their life.

We're a Christian two-day drop-off co-op, dedicated to supporting families throughout their homeschooling journey.

Participating in the Tandem Home Education program offers invaluable support to you and your family. We handle curriculum procurement and provide two days of instruction each week. Additionally, members gain access to exclusive resources and events throughout the semester.

Absolutely, we are an ESA-friendly group and are committed to accommodating your students' needs. We're open to having specific conversations to ensure your student's success at Tandem. Let's work together to create a supportive environment for your students.

While Tandem Home Education does not require parents to sign a contract for a specific enrollment duration, contracts are in place for our teachers and aides. To ensure smooth operations, we request your notice in writing if you decide to withdraw your student. Once the semester starts, if a parent chooses to drop classes after the semester begins, any class fees are forfeited, and families remain responsible for the full semester's tuition. However, families will not incur charges for the following semester if a student withdraws in writing before the semester starts.
-
Tandem Home Education operates as an all-inclusive group rather than an à la carte program. Therefore, we strongly recommend that your student attends for the full day. If, for any reason, your student cannot stay for the entire day, please note that there will be no prorated amount for membership fees associated with your enrollment.

Our co-op caters to students from kindergarten through 12th grade. We've organized the age groups as follows: K, 1-3, 4-6, 7-8, and 9-12.
-
Tandem Home Education embraces the belief that everyone is uniquely gifted with different strengths and abilities. We hold firm to the notion that everyone is capable of learning, and our goal is to create an environment that sets each individual up for success.
-
While Tandem Home Education operates as a drop-off co-op where parents are not required to stay, they are always welcome to observe at any time. We simply ask that you communicate with the Campus Facilitator beforehand so that we can inform the teachers accordingly.
