If you are interested in starting a program in your area, we can help!
For children ages 2-18, we offer a variety of project-based homeschool classes through our Imagine Achievement program, which includes full-time, part-time, drop-off, or stay options, as well as tutoring, organic gardening, field trips, camps, workshops, behavior support, counseling, and neurotherapy onsite! We accept most insurances, including Medicaid, Private Pay, and Scholarships. Our services cater to all students, including those with developmental delays, ADHD, ASD, giftedness, and other special needs.
Ms. Cristine, who is specially trained in Educational Therapy, Behavior Therapy, Marriage & Family Therapy, and Neurotherapy, has homeschooled her daughter with unique abilities for 11 years. She established a specialty tutoring company for children and families with special needs in 2014 and expanded to include a full enrichment program in 2020. Recently, she relocated from Southern CA to Central Florida, where she now operates on a 20-acre forested farm, emphasizing organic gardening, health, and a balance between nature and technology.
We also embrace a co-op model for families interested in unschooling, allowing for a more flexible learning environment. Our teachers are highly sought after for their heart and passion! Ms. Cristine personally trains all staff in the techniques necessary to support a wide range of learning needs, including ABA therapy methods. Some of our teachers hold advanced degrees and teaching credentials, while others bring diverse experiences in working with children, fostering a rich blend of instructors.
This breadth and depth of training and experience in play-based therapies and education give us a unique edge in helping children of all learning differences succeed, including those participating in our summer program!
At Imagine Achievement, our program is deeply rooted in fostering independent thinkers, igniting life-long curiosity, and promoting personal growth. Through hands-on, project-based learning, creative unit studies, and play-based experiences, we nurture the whole child—supporting both academic development and emotional well-being within our co-op structure.
Our approach is research-backed, encouraging children to explore their interests, build confidence, and connect deeply with themselves and their communities. We aim to break away from conventional education norms that often leave kids behind, aligning with the principles of unschooling to allow for a more personalized educational journey.
The 5-hour drop-off (or stay!) days, from 10 am to 3 pm, provide a variety of hands-on life skill and social skill opportunities embedded in an eclectic and flexible learning environment. This includes both outdoor nature-based and indoor classroom learning, with plenty of novel opportunities to keep kids excited about learning, promote brain growth, and create lasting memories through the exploration of real-world experiences.
Need a longer or shorter day? No problem! We understand that every family has a unique schedule, and we accommodate the "Early Birdies" from 7 to 10 am, the half-day families from 10 am to 12:30 pm, and the "Night Owls" from 3 to 6 pm. This flexibility makes it easy to work around necessary services like Speech, OT, and ABA, ensuring every child’s needs are met.
The curriculum is developed to weave together many subjects in chronological order, covering information from the start of known history through the present. Main subjects include Science, Social Studies, Social Skills, Heart Skills, and Life Skills, with English and Math integrated throughout projects and through board and card games, which we refer to as 'game school.' Many more topics and themes are involved to keep interest in learning high! Samples of the topics and weekly schedule can be found in the tabs sections above.
Due to the blended nature of this co-op program, it is advisable for families to continue some academic support at home for English and Math; however, tutoring and coaching are available for families who would like more assistance with academics. We do not require homework, unnecessary testing, grades, or busywork, but if requested, we can tailor anything to the benefit of your child.
We do not offer online classes. We have clear definitions surrounding what an educator's role is and what the family is responsible for politically, morally, and otherwise in raising their children with their chosen belief systems. We are here to share about differences where appropriate and teach how to think, but not what to think. The golden rule is followed by students and teachers, treating others how we wish to be treated, with fairness and respect. Bullying will not be tolerated, and teachers are expected to be within earshot and eyesight of students at all times. Our student-to-teacher ratio is typically 1-2 teachers to 8-10 kids, depending upon need and age. We also have video surveillance for an added layer of safety.
Our Learning Sites are designed for expansion! If we haven't reached your area yet but you're interested in establishing a co-op center nearby, please reach out! (Exact addresses are kept confidential for safety and security purposes until enrollment or a tour has been scheduled).
Our 'pods,' or small class groups, often take place at a hosting home or in a local park, typically featuring a half day in nature and a half day of structured indoor activities. If you're interested in developing a co-op pod for your child in your home or backyard, or if you'd like to teach in a pod in your area, we are more than happy to provide training and support within your local community.
These pods typically differ from our enrichment center classes as they consist of a smaller group of closely aged students with one teacher-mentor. This structure is ideal for students seeking a deeper, more tailored academic environment, especially for those engaged in homeschool or unschooling practices, and can complement a summer program or serve as an additional day or two each week. Join us at Imagine Achievement to foster a vibrant learning experience!
At Imagine Achievement, our mission is to improve the world by better supporting the needs of our children earlier in their development. We provide teachers with advanced training and support to foster their lifelong learning, enabling them to serve as exemplary models of character and love while guiding the next generation. Through our co-op and summer program, we encourage divergent thinking, creativity, and problem-solving, promoting genuine learning over rote memorization. We emphasize the importance of knowledge necessary for becoming successful human beings rather than strictly adhering to traditional standards that may not benefit students in the future. With a focus on value, balance, and quality, our team makes decisions that support freedom of choice and thought. Utilizing brain-based research and a developmentally sound, human-centered approach that keeps the whole child in mind, we prioritize what helps individuals grow into happy and healthy adults, whether through unschooling or other educational methods.
