Who we are…
The Wild Path Christian Homeschool Academy is a faith-based private umbrella school serving homeschooling families across Colorado, Louisiana, California—and beyond. Founded by three homeschooling mothers with a shared calling, our academy exists to walk alongside parents who are discipling their children through Christ-centered education at home.
We believe homeschooling is more than an academic choice—it’s a ministry. Our mission is to equip families with the tools, encouragement, and covering they need to boldly educate their children with faith, purpose, and intentionality.
Rooted in God’s Word, we provide legal coverage, personalized support, structured guidance, and a nurturing community that honors both learning and legacy. Whether your path is just beginning or winding deep into the wild unknown, we’re here to help you walk it faithfully—one step at a time.
In addition to record keeping and curriculum support, we now offer programs designed to bring families together and enrich the homeschool journey:
Umbrella Academy – legal cover, accountability, record keeping, and transcript/diploma services.
Weekly Co-Op – enrichment and exploration days that rotate through arts & crafts, science experiments, nature adventures, fun & games, and Bible study.
Hybrid Micro-Homeschool – a structured, multi-level learning program with curriculum, tutors, electives, and daily support.
Helping Hands Outreach Ministry – opportunities for families to serve the local community through meal trains, pantry support, hygiene care, and greater-needs assistance, while students earn volunteer credit.
Community Connections – monthly field trips, park days, seasonal events, and school spirit activities that give families the joy of connection and celebration.
Here, we believe education is discipleship, and the journey is shared.

Statement of Faith
The Academy affirms the following beliefs:
The Bible is the inspired, infallible, and authoritative Word of God; given for teaching, correction, and training in righteousness.
There is one God, eternally existent in three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
Jesus Christ is fully God and fully man, was born of a virgin, lived a sinless life, died for our sins, rose again, and will return in glory.
Salvation is by grace through faith in Jesus Christ alone.
The Holy Spirit indwells believers, empowering them to live godly lives.
The family is ordained by God as the primary institution for raising and educating children.
Our calling is to glorify God in every pursuit—academic, spiritual, and community—as we walk out our faith.

Mission Statement
At The Wild Path Christian Homeschool Academy, our mission is simple:
to walk alongside families as they follow God’s call to homeschool. We believe that education is not just about books and grades—it’s about shaping hearts, sharpening minds, and guiding children to know and trust the Lord in every season of life.
We envision a community where families feel supported, encouraged, and equipped to lead their children boldly in both faith and learning. Whether through umbrella coverage, weekly co-op gatherings, or our micro-homeschool program, we are here to provide the tools, accountability, and encouragement families need to flourish on their homeschooling journey.
Our commitment is to help families grow children who are:
Rooted in God’s Word — building their lives on truth.
Sharpened by wisdom — learning to think clearly and live purposefully.
Prepared for the journey — equipped with faith and knowledge to walk confidently, even when the path is wild.
We hope to empower homeschooling families through Christ-centered resources, personalized support, and a nurturing community that honors God, family, and learning.
