Core Values
The values we have in the heart of our organization dictate where we will go as a community.
Our leadership team believes it is critical to communicate those values so that each member who participates in our network knows, understands and can embody these same values.
Community: We believe that families are the building blocks of strong communities. When like minded homeschool families comes together, helping one another, we are strengthening our future and building a strong infrastructure for our community.
Excellence: Striving to serve one another with high standards, always looking for ways to improve and build upon shared success.
Intentionality: Homeschooling parents making informed decisions will produce the best possible future for our children. Our staff, leaders and coaches work toward supporting and equipping parents.
Honor: Treating others well is paramount to all of our core values. When we love, honor and respect each other, the community will intentionally become more excellent in all that we do.
In the next few articles, I’ll share more about each.
But first let’s look at Community:
Unite Homeschool is a special place. We are a growing community of conservative families that have all chosen to intentionally educate our children, founded on Biblical values. Many have various reasons for making this choice, but we all make sacrifices in order to do what we feel is best for our kids.
One of the HUGE benefits of a network like this is the ease in sharing whenever we find an amazing resource, thus building up our community.
Our online platform is FULL of treasure which others have shared that can help along the way. The best part is that these things don't vanish or become hard to find like they would on social media. Our communications are all placed into filing systems and use key word indexing in order to make it easier to find something.
Have a great curriculum that has worked for your family? PLEASE talk about it and place links in the "Curricula" space here on the network.
Planning a fun field trip or activity already with another mom? Invite your local community group and make some new friends - our field trip program is the BEST of both worlds - you get the discount, we do all the admin for you!
Did you recently study the Wright Brothers? There is a virtual field trip for that - look in the area called "Online Tools & Virtual Field Trips"
Whatever your family has enjoyed and learned something while doing, other families will too, which is why you want you to come share your “knowledge nuggets” with others! This is just one of the many benefits of community.
Another benefit - shared community resources!
Our Unite warehouse is full of special event supplies. Want to throw a community party - we likely have 80% of what you may need and can help aquire the rest at a discount, with NO out of pocket from you. Our party planners select the date, venue & theme while our admin handles all the tedious details and then schedule a time to meet with our supply steward to borrow the items they need. The party team then shows up fully equipped on the day of the party, ready to host the fun!
