-Perhaps your 8th grader needs to bolster his or her skills in a subject to be ready for high school classes the next year. 

-Perhaps your student is ready to start some high school classes their 8thgrade year, and you want them to start well. 

-Perhaps there are classes like foreign language or math that are no longer working well online. 

-Perhaps you are evaluating whether you can continue to homeschool through high school.

New Hope can help! Take a look at the courses available to our 8th grade students.

It's Servathon time! We kicked off with lunches on Monday and Thursday this week. We are getting into high gear, setting up our FirstGiving pages and personalizing letters we are sending to friends, families, and local businesses.

Waking up in MSLW

Recently I was asked by a parent why I thought taking a group literature course like the one I teach at New Hope is “worth it” for homeschoolers, who can clearly read great books on their own at home.

Macbeth Comes to New Hope

The New Rep players came to New Hope today and put on two Shakespeare workshops (one for middle school, one for high school). All English tutorials have been reading Macbeth in anticipation of the day, and it was a rousing success!

Director's Welcome

We hear it all the time: “What exactly is New Hope?” Our students call it the question! Because New Hope doesn’t easily fall into a traditional institutional category, it is easy to get confused. In fact, we often laugh about how many words it sometimes takes to explain who we are and what we do.

Spanish I Bible Story Projects

Spanish I Bible Story Projects

When I was in college, I signed up to lead a Saturday morning Bible club for elementary school kids in an underprivileged neighborhood. I showed up on the first Saturday and discovered that nearly all of the kids exclusively spoke Spanish. I had to scramble to translate my lesson on the spot…but fortunately, I knew enough Spanish that I (mostly!) could. I had a few take-aways from this experience: 1. If you can speak Spanish, God will give you opportunities to do so, 2. I could communicate a lot more than I thought I could, especially when I geared the story to a young audience, 3. it would not have worked for me to use a Spanish dictionary to look up words in the middle of teaching these kids. I had to use the limited words I already knew in a creative way to get my point across…and that was a skill I needed to hone.
