Overview

Mission

We create a safe space for our children and ourselves to learn, advance, and socialize with others. We serve homeschool families with art classes, story times, farm days, circle times, field trips, and quarterly productions to supplement education.

What it reported doing in 2025

During 2025, 4 Corners Community School expanded our enrichment classes, allowing students to explore new interests and talents. Our music program has flourished, with more students participating and new instruments and genres introduced. We've also increased the number of field trips, offering valuable hands-on learning experiences. Additionally, we're excited to welcome more families into our growing community, reflecting the trust placed in our educational approach. We look forward to continuing this positive momentum in the coming year.

Operating model

Revenue model
Other-operating. 99% of the money available for current operations came from other operating revenue.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

SUPPORTED - The filed numbers largely add up and a large share of total spending goes to programs. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and some filing-based governance responses are negative or unanswered.
