New Member Registration

Fill out the form below and click the Continue button at the bottom.

Note: This registration is for the Branches Homeschool Community West Valley campus ONLY. We meet on Fridays near 35th ave and Greenway in Phoenix.  If you are interested in participating in Biltmore, North Valley or Southwest then you will need to request membership on their website. Thank you!

We are now accepting membership requests for our Fall 2018 semester. Please be patient with us as we are working on making sure we have enough space for all of our returning families and those who are excited to join us. At this time we are putting all new membership requests on a temporary waitlist until early June. Before your membership is approved you will recieve a phone call from one of our current members so please watch out for that. In the mean time feel free to look over the probable class offerings on our Class Registration Page and note that this is a work in progress and will have changes especially to the time period the classes are offered. It takes lots of hand to make our community work and we look forward to hearing how you would like to contribute.

There is a $50 membership registration fee per "school year" to join Branches (June 2018 - May 2019). Once your membership is approved you will receive a request from PayPal. This payment will hold your spot for next year. Unfortunately, we cannot offer a discount half-way through the year.

Check here if you have read and agree to the TERMS OF SERVICE.

Everyone has talents!  Sometimes we don't feel like we do, however God has gifted each of us with different things that we are good at.  If you have area, background, or speciality that you think could help Branches in some way, please include it in the box below.  Over time, we hope to add a variety of classes so that our children can be exposed to many different areas.

Examples include speech, writing, foreign language, music, art, singing, chess, knitting, sewing, photography, science, crafts, geography, sea life, journalism, electricity, making comic books, circuits, aerobics, self-defense, nutrition, programming, cooking, etc.   3. We are in need of teachers and team leaders.  Please pray and think about areas you can help.  Below are some areas that we may be need of volunteers. 

Please check any boxes below that you might be interested in volunteering, you are not committing by checking the box :). Someone will call you to discuss things further and answer your questions.

By having the volunteers needed, we will be able to offer many options and will not have to pay outside teachers.  You don't need to be an expert!
