We understand that outside enrichment plays a pivotal role in homeschooling success. Our programs offer homeschoolers the opportunity to step into a dynamic and exploratory world, where they can deepen their understanding of STEM subjects while nurturing their innate curiosity. From uncovering the principles of robotics to embarking on ecological adventures that reveal the intricacies of our natural world, our dedicated instructors empower your child to connect theory with practice, fostering a profound love for learning.

Beyond the classroom, our programs foster a sense of community and collaboration among homeschoolers, providing valuable social interaction and peer engagement. Your child will not only gain essential STEM knowledge but also develop critical thinking skills, teamwork, and a lifelong passion for discovery. Join us at Talcott Mountain, where we illuminate the path to educational excellence for homeschoolers, and together, we’ll create an enriching experience that transcends traditional boundaries. Explore our diverse offerings today and unlock the full potential of your child’s homeschooling adventure.

We have created a rotation of topics so that different classes are offered each year.


Our classes are split into four major subject areas:
Life science (Dr. Z): ecology, plants and animals, cells and genes, anatomy
Earth science (Mrs. Roberts): weather, geology, marine science, chemistry
Physical science (Ms. Marye): astronomy, physics (motion), physics (electricity/magnetism), AI
Tech (teacher TBD): 3D printing, coding, robotics, game making

The classes offered each session will be posted on on our events page once registration opens – typically ~8 weeks before the session starts. If you join our email list, you will receive an email when registration opens.
