OUR MISSION
PARTNERING WITH PARENTS TO PROVIDE A RICH, INNOVATIVE, AND EFFECTIVE HOME-BASED EDUCATION THAT NURTURES ACADEMIC SUCCESS AND PERSONAL GROWTH FOR ALL STUDENTS.
Is OFS right for you? Home-based education is becoming a more available option, but is it right for your child? At OFS we have a unique model where parents must actively participate in the academic development of their child. This is especially true in the younger grades. A foundational component of the OFS educational model is the Individualized Learning Plan (ILP). Teachers at OFS are called Advisors, and work collaboratively with families to create an ILP that is individualized to the needs and interests of each child. The parent is then responsible to carry out the Individualized Learning Plan components that occur at home. Advisors are available daily via electronic communications, check in weekly regarding updates, and connect monthly with parents via web-based meetings to form strong partnerships and enhance student success. Most students participate in a one day per week in-person Community Day, Monday virtual classes, and/or enrichment classes. OFS also has the option for students to be “fully-virtual” and can facilitate meetings with Advisors virtually.
