Overview

Mission

Thrive Academy is the fully accredited, private Christian school of Heart to Home Learning, Inc. Our school offers a comprehensive educational program that includes classes, tutoring, individualized lessons, online learning facilitation, and standardized testing for students from various educational backgrounds. To better serve our community, we now offer two distinct pathways: - 3-Day Hybrid Program: Maintaining our core partnership with parents, this track utilizes a 60/40 rule where students attend our center for 3 full days and complete 2 days of instruction at home as registered homeschoolers. - New 5-Day Program: Designed for families seeking a full-time classroom experience, this track provides daily on-campus instruction for students who thrive in a consistent, teacher-led environment. Thrive currently supports approximately 60 K-12 students, guided by a dedicated faculty of 15 and a governing board of 6.

The verdict
