A warm gathering place where homeschool children learn through movement, creativity, meaningful friendships, and the quiet beauty of old-fashioned learning.
Town Home Schoolhouse is designed to support and strengthen homeschooling families by offering specialized, once-a-week extracurricular enhancements for students ages 6 through 18. Instead of a comprehensive core curriculum, our carefully selected classes bridge the gap between high-energy application and focused desk work, bringing learning to life through movement, teamwork, and sensory-engaging activities. Rooted in the counsel of Philippians 4:8, our mission is to cultivate an edifying atmosphere focused on things that are pure, lovely, virtuous, and praiseworthy. By providing this socially interactive learning environment, we strive to build faith and character, strengthen each child's confidence, foster critical thinking, and inspire a lifelong love of discovery.
This class focuses on strengthening existing reading skills for 1st through 4th graders through an engaging, multi-sensory approach. Rather than introducing initial reading concepts, we will use active play, storytelling, and hands-on crafts to reinforce phonics rules, enhance reading comprehension, and spark creative imaginations.
This energetic, multi-sensory class brings numbers to life by combining movement, teamwork, and creative play. Designed to meet each child at their individual skill level, Math Madness helps students build foundational math skills and memorize math facts through active participation rather than just sitting at a desk. Whether competing in team events or working individually, students will get out of their seats and engage multiple senses to make math both fun and memorable.
This class focuses on mastering essential life skills through practical, hands-on application. We will take learning both outdoors and indoors to teach students the value of resourcefulness, hard work, and stewardship.
This interactive science class invites students to explore the fascinating world of the animal kingdom. We will discover how to classify mammals, reptiles, birds, amphibians, and fish. Each semester will focus on a different group of animals. (i.e., The first semester will focus deeply on the unique characteristics and species within the mammal and reptile families.)
This comprehensive language arts class empowers students to become confident communicators by mastering both the written and spoken word. Utilizing an IEW-style approach, students will begin by analyzing and imitating excellent literature, eventually progressing through incremental steps to craft their own creative, original compositions. Beyond writing, this class builds essential public speaking and critical thinking skills as students learn to construct logical arguments for debate and share unforgettable narratives that deeply connect with an audience.
This dynamic, interactive class brings mathematics to life through movement, strategic teamwork, and hands-on application. Designed to meet students at their individual skill levels—from middle school fundamentals to high school concepts—Math Madness helps tweens and teens build critical thinking skills through active participation. By stepping away from the desk to tackle team challenges and practical scenarios, students will experience math as a highly relevant, engaging, and collaborative tool.
This fast-paced, interactive class transforms the study of our 50 states into an exciting cross-country adventure! Students will explore the nation through engaging games, storytelling, short educational clips, and catchy songs and chants. With a fun, competitive twist, students will race to earn points alongside their teammates while building a lasting understanding of America's history and diverse landscapes. From mapping out road trips to creating hands-on projects, this course makes geography memorable, tactile, and highly active.
This class focuses on mastering essential life skills through practical, hands-on application and independent problem-solving. We will take learning both outdoors and indoors to teach students the value of resourcefulness, self-reliance, and responsible stewardship.

We are a close-knit family of five, along with our beloved mini-farm of animals. Blessed with a wonderful husband since 2007, I am a proud mother to three children whose age range spans ten years. Our family life is centered around faith, learning, and the unique, multifaceted dynamic of managing both our home and our small, beloved menagerie.
Faith • Family • Learning
My life is deeply rooted in my faith, which is my central guiding principle and first true passion. I am dedicated to loving the Lord God, diving deep into His Word, and joyfully sharing the unconditional love of Jesus with others. It is my heart's desire to play an active role in growing the Kingdom of God, ensuring His love is reflected in everything I do.
My other greatest passions are family and teaching. I bring over 27 years of diverse educational experience to my role at Town Home Schoolhouse. My teaching journey encompasses a long career in dance instruction, co-owning and operating Rowe Performing Arts with my mother, and over seven years of homeschooling my own children. Educating children has always been a calling close to my heart. Following my mother's retirement in 2020, I prayerfully stepped into full-time homeschooling and family life.
As a passionate advocate for Christian education, my perspective is shaped by both attending Christian school and being homeschooled myself. My personal journey with dyslexia has given me a deep appreciation for creative, audible, and multisensory learning methods. It is my goal to ensure every child finds joy, confidence, and connection through discovery.
When I am not teaching or caring for my family, I enjoy creative expression through singing on the praise and worship team, writing short stories and poetry, cooking, painting, and sewing.
At Town Home Schoolhouse, we intentionally limit our class sizes to 12 to 14 students. This purposeful design allows us to step away from an institutional feel and cultivate a close-knit, family-like atmosphere where true friendships take root and families build lasting community.
Because we view every child as a unique creation designed by God, our approach extends far beyond academic instruction. A smaller, intimate setting gives our teachers the freedom to truly know each student, allowing us to gently guide their character and nurture their inner growth. We practice kindness, patience, and respect daily—not merely as classroom rules, but as a way to honor God and reflect His love to one another.
Ultimately, we believe that children flourish academically when their spiritual and emotional needs are also met. By nurturing both the mind and the spirit, we provide a safe, encouraging space where students can confidently grow in their knowledge, understand their God-given value, and walk boldly in His ways.

Once we receive your request, we will email a registration packet and invoice for the $25 enrollment fee per child.
This one-time fee secures your child’s spot, covers registration materials, and includes an official Town Home Schoolhouse T-shirt.
Our regular program is built upon structured Fall and Spring semesters. While the semester structure offers your child a cohesive educational journey, we understand that flexibility is essential for homeschool families. Therefore, we are pleased to offer a convenient month-to-month payment option. Tuition will be due by the first class of each month.
To keep things simple, tuition is a flat monthly rate. While we aren't able to issue refunds for missed days, we completely understand that busy schedules and sniffles happen! To help accommodate your family, we will offer a limited number of make-up classes throughout the semester.
As a thank-you to our returning families, as long as your student takes consecutive semesters with us, you will not have to pay the $25 registration fee again.
