Compass Homeschools Position Statement


Championing Freedom. Equipping Families. Building a Grace-Based Ecosystem.

At Compass Homeschools, we believe that parents have the God-given responsibility and right to direct the education and formation of their children. Homeschooling provides a uniquely powerful opportunity to disciple the next generation in truth, love, and wisdom—rooted in faith and responsive to the needs of each child.

The Importance of Protecting Homeschooling Rights

We affirm the essential role of educational freedom in a healthy society. As increasing numbers of families choose to step away from traditional systems, it is vital that homeschooling remain free from burdensome regulation and state-imposed ideologies that compromise parental authority and biblical values.

Homeschooling isn’t just an educational model—it’s a freedom movement that reflects the diversity, creativity, and spiritual convictions of countless families across the nation.

Aware of the Pitfalls—Prepared with Solutions

With freedom comes responsibility. As homeschool numbers grow, we recognize the potential risks:

  • Inconsistent academic preparation

  • Poor record-keeping or accountability

  • Misuse or misunderstanding of parental rights

  • Public perception challenges, especially when isolated incidents are generalized

We do not ignore these concerns. Instead, we’ve built proactive safeguards into the very structure of Compass Homeschools—through relational support, coaching, and high standards grounded in grace.

A Self-Regulating Ecosystem Rooted in Trust and Training

Our Credentialed Homeschool Coach program equips experienced homeschooling parents to guide, support, and walk alongside others—creating a network of accountability without external control.

These coaches:

  • Support families in educational planning and spiritual formation

  • Promote best practices in home education

  • Provide local and virtual guidance rooted in biblical wisdom

  • Represent the movement well within their communities

By training leaders from within, we’re building a healthy, scalable alternative to government oversight—led by families, for families.

School Choice: Promise and Precaution

We support school choice initiatives that empower families to use public resources for private and home education. However, we caution families to weigh the potential trade-offs carefully.

Public funding can come with:

  • Required testing or reporting

  • Curriculum restrictions

  • Future policy shifts that erode freedom

At Compass, we believe school choice must never come at the cost of parental autonomy or biblical integrity. We help families:

  • Understand the fine print

  • Consider the long-term implications

  • Make informed decisions in alignment with their values

Our Vision

Compass Homeschools is more than a curriculum—it’s a movement of grace-based education, leadership development, and Spirit-led mentoring. We envision a future where:

  • The home remains the central place of learning and discipleship, guided by parents grounded in truth and grace

  • Credentialed coaches provide relational guidance to help families flourish with confidence

  • Churches serve as hubs of encouragement, equipping, and community, coming alongside homeschool families with prayer, support, and resources

  • Our children are prepared not only for college and career—but for Kingdom purpose

Can Compass Homeschools Be a Model for Others?

Absolutely. While our Credentialed Homeschool Coach program is intentionally designed for Christian homeschool families, the underlying model—grace-based mentoring, relational accountability, and parent-led education—can be adapted more broadly.

We believe that by holding firmly to our core values, we can inspire other communities to develop parallel support systems rooted in their own beliefs and convictions. Through partnerships, consultation, or tiered certifications, Compass can provide a scalable framework for:

  • Faith-based groups beyond evangelical Christianity

  • Community co-ops that respect parental rights

  • International homeschool initiatives seeking support and structure

We are committed to remaining faithful to our biblical foundation while generously sharing best practices, tools, and wisdom with those who seek to empower parents and protect educational freedom.
