Vision Statement
Free Range Learning Cooperative, Inc. is a secular, non-profit homeschool community whose unifying purpose is to inspire and enrich the homeschool journey of the families in our community.


We cherish the diverse identities of our families. We are committed to creating and nurturing an inclusive and accepting homeschool community where every student and family, regardless of nation of origin, race, immigration status, religious affiliation (all faiths and non-faith belief systems), disability status, or LGBTQIA+ identity, can belong.

We support our families through validating actions, language, service, and accommodations. Each family’s volunteer contributions are essential to building and growing our community.


We strive to be anti-racist. We acknowledge that racism can be unconscious or unintentional, and that identifying racism as an issue does not automatically mean those involved in the act are racist or intend to have a negative impact. We commit to an ongoing process of individual and collective education, discussion, and action.


We hold the expectation that all people in FRLC will respect and accept the diverse identities and abilities of our participants, including gender and sexual identities. We strive to be anti-homo, bi, and transphobic and to use affirming language around gender identity, such as always using a person's pronouns. We support positive affirmation for all. We do not tolerate language or actions that exclude or diminish equal opportunities for our participating families. We know mistakes might be made unintentionally, but we will purposefully embrace opportunities for growth.


Development Concerns

If your child does not meet developmental criteria for their age range, we will make accommodations. Free Range is where community meets learning. Our priority is to support the growth and development of each child. Every child is valued, respected, and accepted as they are. We work with each family to enrich the child’s learning experience.
