Our Story
The Cedar School was born from a shared experience: the joy, the weight, and the complexity of homeschooling. As mothers who have lived the classical path, we know what it feels like to carry the burden of educating our children while striving to do it all perfectly. Through years of practice, prayer, and learning, we discovered a better way—one rooted not in striving, but in Christ, in community, and in Sabbath rhythms of rest.
From this place of experience, we realized families don’t need to carry the load alone, nor surrender their God-given authority over their children’s education. The Cedar School exists to walk alongside homeschool families, offering guidance, structure, and support while honoring parents as the primary educators of their children.
Emerging from the mission of Everyday Mission, our school carries a biblical foundation and Kingdom values that foster spiritual maturity, wisdom, and faithful learning. We are committed to raising students who are deeply rooted in Christ, confident in their identity, and equipped to flourish without conforming to the culture of performance and striving.
Inspired by Scripture—“The righteous will flourish like a cedar of Lebanon” (Psalm 92:12)—The Cedar School exists to cultivate students who grow deep roots in Christ, stand firm in wisdom and character, and live with purpose, joy, and rest in the Kingdom of God.
Our Mission
The mission of The Cedar School is to partner with homeschool families to form students on the foundation of Christ, marked by rigorous learning and faithful obedience, within a Christ-centered community that cultivates freedom from performance-driven striving amid the weight of academic expectations.
Our Vision
We envision a generation rooted in Christ and freed from the burden of performance-driven striving—students who pursue wisdom, walk confidently in their God-given identity, and shape culture with truth, courage, and grace for the glory of God.
