About Us:

Family Academy Private School is a licensed and approved for the State of Washington.

Family Academy Private School was founded in the early 1980’s by two certified teachers as a private school extension program to homeschoolers under the home-schooling law of Washington State.

Today, we offer homeschool students the opportunity for in-class sessions at our various learning centers across America. We have 5-day school settings, (5-day school is limited to 60 students annually) with some learning centers on our Hybrid Program. The Hybrid Program is two or three days in class time and the rest is online with a Teacher Consultant. This has worked particularly well during Covid, and we will be continuing this opportunity.

Family Academy Private School offers accreditation through our affiliate schools such as Stride Christian Academy utilizing IALDS and Academy Northwest for Cognia. Both serve accreditation for High School courses.

We are also an affiliate school with Greenways Academy of Spokane, WA who has accreditation for Trade School training.  Students zoom once a week and do self-paced assignments during the week while under close supervision of one of our Teacher Consultants and a Greenways Academy counselor. This program is also accredited.

 

Family Academy Membership Organization supports Family Directed Education Training; Parent Qualifying Course; Teacher Certification Program and Family Membership Program.

Family Academy Membership Organization seeks to fit education to the child and equip parents to implement it. We believe that parents (and Guardians) are in a God-appointed role. Through our Able To Teach course and by partnering with a Family Academy Private School Teacher-Consultant (TC) we help the family choose what will be studied—according to the student’s need and interests, and the parent’s desires and abilities.

 

Our Vision:

We at Family Academy –

  • Inspire students to thrive
  • Encourage parents to educate
  • Equip teachers to serve
  • Impact future generations

 

Our Mission:

… is to put parents in the “driver’s seat” of their children’s education, and support growth into God-given purposes.

 

Our Philosophy: 

Family Academy Private School & Membership Program begins with the Biblical worldview showing that

  • Each child is unique and of equal precious value before God,
  • Learning takes place best within the context of meaningful relationships, and
  • Parents should exercise the primary teaching influence during the K-12 years.

Our role is to reinforce the family’s values and goals, to help develop faith and character, and strengthen the family unit. The private school is set up to take the strengths of the student and expand while working on the weaknesses to give a well-rounded learning success.

Guiding principles: a student learns from his/her parent and achieves.  The parent encourages the student and collaborates with the Teacher Consultant.  The Teacher Consultant supports the parent and assesses the student’s work.
