Nature-based education is becoming increasingly popular in the United States. There are many organizations that support the leaders of nature-based early education programs to help children form connections with nature. Hemlock Hill Academy is proud to be a part of this important movement!

Hemlock Hill Academy is a hybrid educational support program that integrates the academic studies of Science with nature-based projects and discovery throughout the school year. We focus on seasonal changes in Nature and encourage a connection to the Earth.

Parents must complete the homeschooling requirements set by the Pennsylvania Department of Education.

If you have any questions about homeschooling we are happy to help or we recommend that you reach out to Darlene Catlett, a local homeschool evaluator with great resources and tips.
