MPA Homeschool Programs

al thinking and a love of learning. We accept students with different learning capabilities but we do not service IEP’s as we are an enrichment program.. We follow the Jeffco yearly calendar and classes are held from 8:30- 3:30 each school day. The following grade levels are offered on the days listed below. Tuesday - Lower Elementary: K - 2nd grade 8:30 AM- 3:30 PM
Wednesday- Upper Elementary: 3rd - 5th and Middle School: 6th - 8th, 8:30 - 3:30
Friday- Lower and Upper Elementary: 1st -6th grade, 8:30 AM- 3:30 PM

Kindergarten, 7th, and 8th grade students attend one day a week.
1st - 6th grade students have the choice of attending one or two days a week, on either or both days those grades attend. The Tuesday and Wednesday classes provide home-schooling families with Montessori and project-based experiential learning experiences for Kindergarten through 8th grade. We provide knowledgeable and experienced instructors for all of our programs. Students remain with their teachers all day, giving large windows of time for exploring learning topics. Students visit the library at the end of their day each week. The Tuesday Lower Elementary (K-2nd) classes have a maximum of 16 students per classroom. Students are guided through lessons and projects on topics of study chosen by the teacher. The Wednesday Upper Elementary (3rd-5th) and Middle School (6th-8th) classes have a maximum of 16 students per classroom. Upper Elementary students are guided through lessons and projects on topics of study chosen by the teacher. Middle School students are guided through lessons and projects that are collaboratively developed between the teacher and students. These topics can extend as long as student interest and deep learning continue to happen. The Friday Lower Elementary (1st-3rd) and Upper Elementary (4th-6th) classes are our original and longest running homeschool program. Friday students split their day between classroom time and participation in Art, Music, and PE classes with MPA’s Specials instructors. This provides students with a wide range of experiences throughout the day and shorter work periods with their classroom teachers. Learning topics work similarly to the Tuesday and Wednesday programs, incorporating Montessori and project aspects, but on a smaller scale due to time constraints. All of the after-school programs sponsored by MPA are available to all Homeschool students, as well as the science fair, school pictures, the school yearbook, talent show, social nights for Lower Elementary and Upper Elementary students and families, growing and changing (5th grade), and the 6th grade trip. Homeschool families can also choose to participate in state testing with the full-time students. Contact the Homeschool Director for further information. Additional reading on the Montessori Method can be found in the library. Suggestions:
