The rhythm

How the week works

Your child is in our classroom Monday through Wednesday, learning core subjects with Montessori materials, specialists, and friends. Thursday and Friday belong to your family: reading together, exploring, traveling, or digging deeper into whatever has captured your child's curiosity.

School and home

What happens where

At school

Core academics taught by our teachers with authentic Montessori materials, plus weekly art and music specialists, Bible, and life in a warm classroom community.

At home

A light continuation of a few "bridge subjects" we start in the classroom, plus whatever your family chooses to explore together. We give you a clear guide so you always know what is yours.

The home side

What are bridge subjects?

Bridge subjects are the handful of areas we begin at school and your family continues at home. The younger the child, the lighter the load. For a kindergartner, it looks like reading books together and exploring the world. For a fifth grader, it might mean finishing and publishing a piece of writing started at school. It is less than you think, and we spell it all out for you.

Registering as a homeschool

The homeschool part, made simple

In the 3-Day program, your family registers your child as a homeschool student with your Minnesota district. It is surprisingly easy. We provide a step-by-step guide and point you to exactly the forms you need. We cannot file them for you, but you will never wonder what to do next.

The yearly test

One test a year, many options

Minnesota asks homeschool families to complete one standardized test each year, arranged by the family. We give you plenty of options and point you to everything you need to choose the right one. Families tell us it is genuinely painless.

You are not alone in this

If you love the idea of homeschooling but the full weight of it feels overwhelming, this program was built for you. We carry the academic core. You get the joy. And we are a phone call away all year long.

Is this you?

The 3-Day is perfect for families who...

  • Homeschool, or have always wondered if they could
  • Want strong academics without carrying every subject themselves
  • Treasure time together as a family during the week
  • Want their child to have a classroom, teachers, and true friends
