Homeschooling Resources

Homeschooling in Wenatchee is thriving, with countless opportunities for families to learn, connect, and grow together. Whether you’re new to homeschooling or looking to expand your resources, the Valley offers a wide variety of co-ops, classes, and community support.

The Wenatchee Valley has a large and active homeschool community, making it one of the most supportive places in Washington to pursue alternative education. From faith-based co-ops to hybrid academies, nature schools, and enrichment programs, families can hand-pick the learning environment that best fits their needs. Beyond formal programs, many parents form their own co-ops, host classes, or offer specialized skills—from foreign language to outdoor exploration, so there’s truly something for everyone. And if you’re looking to connect right away, the Wenatchee Valley Homeschoolers Facebook group is a great place to start.
