The Sycamore Tree was the first organization in the country established primarily for homeschoolers, since 1981. They have everything you need from pre-school through high school, including pre-packaged curriculum with lesson plans for K-9. The company staff is willing and ready to help make your homeschooling experience all you want it to be. They are very helpful and knowledgeable.

Sycamore Academy offers an accredited online program for grades 3-12. Students can do their work anytime, anywhere using Switched-On Schoolhouse curriculum and send it over the internet to their office. They also have a regular homeschool program for K-12. This includes an individualized study program, quarterly evaluations, and provides year-end standardized testing.

Sycamore Academy includes many more wonderful extras to make your child's homeschool years a great memory. Sycamore Academy is accredited by the Northwest Association of Accredited Schools.
