Friday Arts and Fun


Friday Arts and Fun reflects the vision and mission of Home Front Educators. Friday Arts and Fun started six years ago in the fall of 2003 with 24 families and 4 classes. This spring we will have 34 class offerings and over 130 families taking classes with FAF.

We support all families in their endeavors to educate their children in the manner God directs them. We hope to enhance the education occurring at home, and provide specialized classes that may be more difficult for families to provide at home. By providing a group setting in which like-minded individuals can get to know and support one another, we create an environment that fosters success, friendship and true community. We operate using Christian beliefs found in the Judeo-Christian Holy Scriptures and classes may include prayer and teaching from these scriptures.

Spring 2010 Friday Arts and Fun Classes will meet :
    February 5, 12, 19
    March 5, 12, 26
    April 9, 16, 23 (Easter weekend pushes classes back one week)
