Mission Statement

Jesus said to them, “You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul and with all your mind…And the second is like it: You shall love your neighbor as yourself.”

Matthew 22:37-39

GCHE Co-op operates as a Christ-centered organization and functions from within the Christian worldview. As such, the teachers and curricula covered will always follow the Christian viewpoint. Our mission is to:

2. Strengthen Christian home educating families by providing times of close fellowship and interaction.
3. Co-labor with each other under God’s direction to achieve excellence by serving each other through our strengths.
4. Display the positive principles of home education to our community.
