SEEK HOMESCHOOL Families
SEEK homeschool Families is a group of Christian homeschool families, located in Lubbock, Texas, who seek the Lord first in all things (Matthew 6:33) and then focus in on Stewardship, Education, Enrichment and Knowledge-building. We share of our God-given talents, skills and experiences for the benefit of our students offering Christ-centered learning opportunities and social events that supplement what we do at home.
Our families represent multiple denominations but as believers in Christ, we gather as one body, sharing of our talents and skills each week for the benefit of participating students (1 Corinthians 12:12-25). No one is paid; parents volunteer their time both in and out of the classroom organizing core academic and transcript enhancing elective classes in a flexible fashion as well as enriching social experiences. The parent leaders in the classroom do not circumvent the parents right to adapt, and grade course work for their student but work in partnership with the parent.
EDUCATIONAL PHILOSOPHY
We believe God has given parents the responsibility of raising their children, and of educating them. Our hope is that SEEK offers classes that support parents by providing accountability, group learning experiences, social events, and enrichment opportunities. We believe that testing, grading, creating transcripts, and ultimately disciplining is the responsibility of the parent.
We believe that as believers in Christ, classes and approach to classroom conversations should have a Biblical worldview but that differences of doctrine are a personal decision are not to be dwelled upon in co-op.
We believe that classes and enrichment should be focused on truth, goodness and beauty based on Philippians 4:8 which says, “Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable – if anything is excellent or praiseworthy – think about such things.”
We believe that students flourish when given the opportunity to discuss, research, wrestle and present; therefore, we encourage parent leaders to lean on these tools, rather than lecture, when planning classes at the upper level.
