Homeschool Co-Op | MURFREESBORO, TN
You Answered the Call to Homeschool.
You Don't Have to Walk it Alone.
Welcome to ABODE (A Body Of Devoted Educators). We are a Christ-centered homeschool cooperative serving Middle Tennessee. We share the teaching load so your kids experience hands-on learning, and you find a supportive village.
Why Families Choose ABODE
Serving Your Entire Family
From Kindergarten through high school (with nursery available for enrolled families), our community is designed to keep everyone together. You never have to splinter your day driving across town to different programs for different ages.
Purposeful, Hands-On Learning
By volunteering our time and talents, our parent-educators create a rich environment where students benefit from learning and accountability from multiple teachers, experiencing a classroom setting, and exploring subjects in a highly hands-on way.
True Family Affordability
We know homeschooling is a financial sacrifice and ABODE provides an unmatched value for your budget. We strive to keep our registration fees low by spreading costs across enrolled families, fundraising events like our annual multi-family yard sale, and relying on the dedication of our parents as teachers and volunteers.
You Want the Best for Your Kids, But Pouring from an Empty Cup Leads to Burnout.
You felt led to homeschool to guide your children's hearts and minds. But trying to do it all alone is taking a toll:
Academic Exhaustion
Carrying the entire academic load by yourself can be exhausting and draining week after week.
Budget Strain
You want rich group experiences for your kids, but expensive drop-off programs stretch the budget too far.
Missing Purpose
Informal playgroups are fun, but they don't offer the academic purpose your older children need to thrive.
"We believe homeschooling was never meant to be done alone; it thrives best in community."
Step Into More Than Just a School Day.
Step Into a Community.
At ABODE, the morning begins with everyone gathered together for announcements, the Pledge of Allegiance, prayer, and birthday shoutouts. It’s a simple but meaningful way to start the day.
From there, students head into their classes for a mix of academic and enrichment learning, bringing subjects to life in ways that are hard to replicate at home. During lunch and recess, families have the chance to slow down, talk, and build friendships.
By the end of the day, students leave having learned something new, and parents leave feeling encouraged. Every class and interaction is designed to support your family as you pursue education through a biblical worldview.
"Abode co-op exceeded our expectations and provided everything we needed and more. My children not only made wonderful friends, but their academic classes also formed a solid foundation for our weekly studies."
