Homeschool Enrichment Centers (HEC) is a learning center for Preschool through High School that provides a safe place where homeschool families can come together, take Enrichment & Core classes, participate in community events & field trips and receive support and encouragement from knowledgeable people & one another. We believe in igniting the joy of learning in our students with hands-on learning, engaging interaction & critical thinking, while teaching students responsibility, compassion & how to work well with others. Whether you are looking for a couple of classes or a whole day (or more), staying with your child or dropping them off, homeschool families can find it here. We are like a college, but for kids, where you can choose each individual class that best meets you & your child's needs!

How Does HEC Work?
