Come and Homeschool at Your Local Church Schoolhouse

The Old Schoolhouse® (established in 2001) along with its online Christian-worldview curriculum platform, SchoolhouseTeachers.com, exists to serve homeschooling families worldwide. A Schoolhouse is a local homeschool co-op or microschool for like-minded parents to gather together in a safe environment and teach ready-made courses to homeschooled students PK–12th grade. During its twice-weekly homeschool-days, the Schoolhouse is an engaged community between homeschool families and the Director, as well as the church leadership if meeting at a church facility.

Why Do Christian Kids Need Christian Education?

Education shapes how our kids think about God, the world, and their place in it. Here’s what a Christian education does:

  • Biblical worldview woven into every subject
  • Upholds God’s Word as authoritative
  • Builds character and Christ-centered living
  • Teaches kids to recognize and avoid anti-God philosophies
  • Academic rigor grounded in faith
    Church and family working together in discipleship

What Is a Schoolhouse?

A Schoolhouse is a specific model—not just any homeschool co-op, but one built on a solid foundation:

  • PK–12 homeschool co-op meeting inside a local evangelical church
  • Uses SchoolhouseTeachers.com—an online platform with 400+ ready-to-teach courses (no prep needed)
  • One-room Schoolhouse learning model with mixed grade levels
  • Parents teach from existing courses; families stay on-campus together
  • No enrollment or per-child fees; only requires SchoolhouseTeachers.com membership
  • Shared workload among families

Why Join a Schoolhouse?

Families are leaving public schools in search of a safe place to land—a community that shares their values and supports their homeschool journey. A Schoolhouse delivers:

  • Community of like-minded Christian families
  • Accountability and positive peer pressure
  • Socialization across all grade levels
  • Parents teach what they love; shared teaching load
  • High-quality, paced curriculum with academic rigor
  • Complete record-keeping, report cards, and transcript tools
  • High school credits available
  • Extracurriculars: field trips, banquets, science fairs, drama, yearbook, sports days, mentoring groups, and more
