Overview

Mission

To provide family centered (educational/youth activities) opportunities as an extension of the Christian Faith.

What it reported doing in 2024

The organization operates homeschool campuses both online and on-site with physical campuses in Riverside, Fountain Valley and San Juan Capistrano, California. During the 2024 - 2025 school year, the organization offered more than 1,677 enrolled classes, serving over 750 students. Approximately 70 of instruction was conducted through live on-campus classes, each with a small class size that allowed instructors to provide more individualized attention to each student. The remaining 30 was conducted through interactive online classes. These classes help parents fill the educational gaps in their children's educational and emotional growth which is particularly important for parents of children who do not fit the traditional public and/or private school tradition.

Operating model

Revenue model
Earned-program. 98% of the money available for current operations came from fees and other program 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 program spending has grown recently. Some filing-based governance responses are negative or unanswered and reported officer compensation is a large share of total spending, which may reflect staffing concentration.
