Snohomish County Secular Homeschool Community
WELCOME
We are a secular homeschool community that values all cultures, political ilignements, genders and races equally. Our aim is to be curious and learn about oursevles and eachother. We aim to connect and become a village with open-minded individuals. Homeschooling alone is hard. Our center is about freedom and respect for children's autonomy in the learning process. There is no set commitment. We homeschool because we want to be able to learn at individualized paces and participate at different levels. Humans/children learn best through play and self guided learning goals. Our vibrant and inclusive educational community believes academic excellence, child freedom, and personal growth go hand in hand. Our experienced and dedicated guides strive to find their own interests and strengths and use them to assist children find theirs. Our programs use community resources and provide completely free opportunities for all kids in the community to join us and explore. We are committed to creating an adventurous environment that is not afraid to take risks and trust children with freedom of choice.

Our Mission
The Sonder Life Learners program aims to support the homeschooling community by providing an educational experience with professionals and making a community of highly motivated self-directed adults who can guide young minds in exploring their intrinsic interests. Experiencing the difference between community and activity as we all develop our minds nourishes our bodies and promotes self-awareness and accountability. The program is child-led at its center, the adult guides encourage children to explore their interests and set self-made goals.
