About us
What is EPIc Academy?
EPIC Beginnings
Since its founding in 2015, EPIC Homeschool Academy has existed to Encourage Parents and Inspire Children in their homeschooling journeys. EPIC meets on Mondays at Peace Church in Middleville, Michigan. By offering a one-day-a-week experience, and a community of like-minded families, EPIC inspires students by providing experts who coach them in their studies. And, EPIC equips and empowers parents to help their children achieve excellence in academics, faith, and service.
EPIC teaching staff act as mentors in the learning process by providing engaging experiences during class on Mondays and springboard knowledge for students and their parents to continue the content study at home throughout the week. Feedback is offered, but in compliance with state homeschool laws, the parent is the one ultimately responsible for the education and assessment of the child.
EPIC operates as a homeschool, educational ministry program with non-profit 501(c)3 status.
Everything at EPIC evolves from a Christian worldview. All experiences and learning should point us back to our Creator and help us grow in our relationship with our Savior. The foundation of our ministry is built on five core values...
EPIC's 5 Core Values
01
EPIC strives to build curiosity and wonder while preparing minds for whatever future lies ahead. This is not an ancillary program, and most classes require an investment of time and effort throughout the week to complete homework.
02
AUTHENTIC LEARNING
Students will participate in many hands-on experiments and projects in each of their classes. We believe that the very best learning happens when students are engaged in their learning for real, authentic purposes.
03
COMMUNITY
We provide interactive classes, family events, and service projects in order to give EPIC students and parents a sense of belonging.
04
DISCIPLESHIP
EPIC desires to be a place where children are encouraged to deepen their spiritual walk with Christ. We do this by teaching our content through a Biblical lens, and through weekly chapel services.
05
SERVICE
Quarterly service projects help our students live out their faith in tangible ways. EPIC serves both local and international ministries throughout the year. Students are also encouraged to serve EPIC by helping with behind the scenes needs such as set up and tear down each week.
