Our Structure
-
Cottage School
One Teacher, One Room, Varying Students
In our drop-off, pick-up cottage school, students will still have the opportunity to gain the independence and initiative of traditional schooling, but this model allows us to have a class of all ages and abilities, creating a community within the school that encourages collaboration, fellowship, and real-world skills. Our one-room approach allows us to have small class sizes where we can provide individualized learning for each student.
Your child would be considered homeschooled, but we would be the ones doing the teaching. Transcripts, grades, and mastery reports will be provided for each student.
-
Schedule
In a traditional school environment, we see many minutes wasted during the day. With micro class sizes and more individualized instruction, we get to give you back your most valuable asset with your children: time.
Friendship Scholar’s Academy meets 4 days a week from 9:15am to 1:15pm. During this time, your child will receive direct instruction and some work time. Flexibility is a key component to individualized education, so while you can see our weekly schedule here, please know that the exact start and ending times of each subject may change depending on what the students need.

It Takes a Village
Have you ever experienced your child stirring God in your heart? Now, imagine a 6 year old doing that for a 13 year old or vice versa. As these kids pray and fellowship together, they will find Christ’s community and learn how to talk to others about God.
Our community extends beyond the classroom. With planned parent workshops, families will be integrated and involved in their child’s learning. It’s important for students AND their parents to know that they have a team of adults advocating for them and loving them. Your child’s teacher is a resource for you just as much as you will be a resource for them!
While Friendship Scholar’s Academy encourages community and resource finding alongside gaining academic and Biblical knowledge in the classroom, these skills will transfer through our children into their world around them.
-
Who We Serve
Friendship Scholar’s Academy is currently able to serve students that would traditionally be in Kindergarten to 8th grade. (Ages 5-13)
Students will not be assigned to grade levels, but instead their learning will be tailored to meet their needs and best use their time at school.
-
Curriculum & Cost
With each student receiving individualized instruction, a variety of standards-driven curriculum will be used alongside supplemental resources.
Current classes offered are: Bible, English/Language Arts (Reading and Writing), Math, Science, and Social Studies.
We also offer an enrichment course on Wednesdays from 4pm to 6pm. This is an additional cost to the school tuition, but students of the school will receive a discount!
Our base tuition is $8,260 for the entire school year. We offer payment plans, and family discounts. For more details, you can find our tuition and fees here.
