Our Purpose...
FACHE exists to support your family's efforts in home education under God led authority. Our goal is to provide collective encouragement and support for private home school families in the greater foothill area.
This is accomplished through a bimonthly newsletter, local support groups, various workshops, a lending library and curriculum suggestions. We also sponsor a yearly New and Used Curriculum Fair.
Our newsletter The Foothill Beacon, keeps families informed of ongoing activities, seminars and field trip opportunities. You will also find tidbits of encouragement here.
FACHE Doctrinal Statement...
We believe that the Bible is the inspired, inerrant Word of God and is our manual for faith and practice. We believe that Jesus Christ is God incarnate, that He was born of a virgin, lived on Earth in human form, redeeming mankind from eternal consequences of sin.
We believe that our children belong to God and are entrusted to us by Him. Therefore, we believe that our purpose for education is to train our children to be faithful servants of God and to know Him.
Matthew 5:14
