Overview

Mission

Providence hybrid academy is a hybrid learning program that integrates the benefits of classroom learning with the independence of schooling at home. Our approach prioritizes social development through free play, creativity through the arts, and developmentally appropriate learning.

What it reported doing in 2025

Hybrid education pha provides students who are homeschooling with robust classes taught by trained teachers to supplement their work at home. Emphasis is on developmentally appropriate learning, excellent books, social development and outdoor experiences.

Operating model

Revenue model
Earned-program. 92% 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

STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Fundraising costs are high for each dollar raised and some filing-based governance responses are negative or unanswered.
