PROGRAM COORDINATOR
“Having homeschooled my two sons for 10 years, I feel the deepest respect and admiration for your decision to educate your child at home. Partnering with APEX, you can enjoy the best of both worlds!”
ABOUT The APEX Program, sponsored by St. Vrain Valley Schools, is open to students in grades kindergarten through 12, and is designed to support families who choose to educate their children at home by providing enriching classes and curriculum resources. Parents remain the primary instructional provider, with the school supplementing and complementing their efforts. Families participating in the APEX program receive instruction and most educational materials at no cost. The APEX program is funded by tax dollars provided through St. Vrain Valley Schools.
WHY APEX?Here are just a few of the reasons homeschool families choose to participate in APEX:
