Calling All Homeschool Families!

The Language Tree is exploring the possibility of expanding our program to include a language immersion class specifically designed for elementary-aged homeschool students. The program would begin Fall of 2026 and would meet twice a week in your chosen language of French or Spanish. Give us a like or leave a comment if this is something that would interest you!

Please help us spread the word to homeschool friends and family!
