IFY Homeschool is committed to providing quality educational options for the homeschooling community at large. We believe this is a multi-pronged approach, using layering methods to really absorb the educational content. Our teaching philosophy combines the Charlotte Mason Method and Unit Study Methods, all while incorporating fun and social interaction to totally engage the students in learning how to learn. We want the students to not only accomplish the mastering of their K-12 schooling, but also help them accomplish life in general by providing the tools necessary to acquire whatever knowledge they may need in the future God has planned for them.
