Welcome to First Class Homeschool Ministries!
Imagine a place where homeschooling families can find friendship, academic enrichment, information and encouragement right in their community! Now imagine this homeschool ministry joined together with other homeschool ministries under one para-church umbrella that offers support, encouragement, networking and training for it's leaders. That's FCHM!
From ordinary to vibrant - FCHM helps you take your homeschool co-op to a whole new level! Whether you need to start, grow, or revitalize your homeschool ministry, FCHM is here for you.
We understand that you want your homeschool co-op to be full of life, yet we also know it can be hard to find the time and help you need.
When your church or homeschool group joins First Class Homeschool Ministries, you become part of an incredible, international evangelistic homeschool ministry association - one that gives you the tools you need to create a vibrant homeschool co-op for families with children of all ages to draw together for support, encouragement and friendship!
Your membership gives you creative ideas, guides for leaders, easy ways to promote and fund your ministry, a whole network of other homeschool co-op leaders and members just like you, leadership training and so much more.
If you have an existing ministry to homeschoolers, you have come to the right place! FCHM is committed to supporting co-op leaders and their families both practically and spiritually. At First Class, we believe that the church can and should be a primary place of support for homeschooling families. Our program has been created with this in mind.
Would you like more information on how to start a homeschool co-op in your church?
The First Class ezine, "Connections" is full of great information on homeschooling, encouragement and wonderful ideas for homeschooling communities that will help keep you going all year long! Keep up with all that God is doing with First Class co-ops from coast to coast!
Become a Member of FCHM!
There has never been a better time to join the growing network of homeschooling families of First Class. Our co-ops bring life and encouragement to your homeschooling family and our member benefits are an added bonus. Check out what's happening in homeschooling communities just like yours and join the network!
Why Start a First Class Homeschool Co-op?
At First Class, we believe that homeschoolers are at their best when they'reconnected with other homeschooling families. Many churches today want to reach out to homeschooling families, but are unsure of an effective way to do so.
Equally as important is that by partnering with FCHM, you help other parents and pastors start homeschool co-ops! That's right! By partnering with FCHM, you become part of a much larger umbrella ministry.
FCHM will help you, in partnership with your local church or homegroup to:
- Start a homeschool cooperative using a model that works (over 2000 families have enrolled in First Class co-ops)
- Have access to a database that was made for the sole purpose of making your homeschool cooperative easier to manage
- Connect with other First Class co-ops in exchanging ideas, encouragement and inspiration
- Reach out to your local community of homeschoolers with a Christ-centered program
- Be part of an organization that is committed to coming alongside local churches and parents in ministry
