Welcome!
We are glad you have found us! Heritage is a parent-run Christian co-op serving homeschoolers in need of support from other homeschooling families. We meet at NorthRidge Church in Plymouth on Mondays for two 14-week semesters during the academic year. We provide quality academic and enrichment classes for all ages. Most classes are taught by parents in their areas of education and experience, which keeps the cost of classes very minimal for required materials, with a few classes taught by professional instructors.
We are a parent-run co-op and, as such, we appreciate the contributions of every member and regard them as vital to the success of the group. Our goal is to provide our children academic and enrichment classes, with excellence, to the glory of God.
We hope you will take advantage of this program. It is sure to be a great place for us all to find support, encouragement and edification in our homeschool endeavors.
You can also check out the "LINKS" section above for information about homeschooling in Michigan, learn about your options, and decide which direction is best for your family.
We do our best to keep our families safe during their time at Heritage. At this time it is the policy of NorthRidge that face coverings are worn at the discretion of each family. Those who wish to wear masks should feel free to do so, but it is not required. Any family exposed to or experiencing illness at or near the time of the attending is asked to refrain from attending.
Our Mission / How to Apply
At Heritage Home Educators’ Association, our MISSION is:
- To provide excellent and affordable academic and enrichment classes to all homeschooled children from Nursery to High School.
- To foster a sense of community within the group by serving together and sharing life with one another both inside and outside the co-op.
- To train children to be leaders and servers by offering leadership classes and community service opportunities.
- To empower parents to homeschool with confidence.
- To be a center where families can supplement their home education through academic and enrichment classes at a fraction of the cost.
- To be a community of people willing to use their God given gifts, talents and skills to help and serve others within the group and in our local communities.
- To be a place where parents can find support and encouragement through prayer, enrichment classes, workshops and mentoring.
- To be a community where God honoring relationships are built and God’s love is shown to all members, Christians and non-Christians alike.
- To be a group of people dedicated to excellence to the glory of God and our Lord Jesus Christ.
