I just thought I would tell you our home school name, but
first let me tell you something. This is the first year that
I have taught my kids, and it is going fantastic.
My kids are 17 and 14, school was very difficult for both
of them, and they were always very stressed and angry (to name
a few of the symptoms of school stress). So, when we talked
about naming our school, we were thinking along the lines of
how home school made them feel. After writing down how they felt
and looking up words in the dictionary, we finally decided, our
school name is At Ease Academy because that's how
they feel and our emblem is a dove with a green sprig in her
mouth. It's very peaceful looking and we are proud of our name.

We are new to homeschooling this year [2007]. My son attended full day preschool and kindergarten. This year he is six and in the first grade. For many reasons we are choosing to learn at home now.
I just wanted to thank you for offering such a valuable web site to the homeschool community. I find it so extraordinary that your child is an adult and you continue to be so involved! Your CA private school information was helpful as I just completed the form a few hours ago using your sample for reference. Thank you!
We named our school Ben Franklin School of Discovery. We've been reading about Ben Franklin lately and my son and I were so impressed with his life and discoveries that we both agreed this is the perfect name for our homeschool this year.

We use the name Country Day Academy for the Gifted.
Because Country Days are relaxing and fun and the students are
very gifted each in their own way. Sounds professional and at
the same time gives the kids a sense of belonging.
Great site! I found so many interesting things and will keep
checking in!

Ours is called Dejadoro Academy and it was created
from the first 2 letters of each of our first names in the family--in
birthday order. Denise (DE), Jann (JA) Donna (DO) and Rodney
(RO)...the Academy part just sounds 'professional' to me, so
that's why it was included.

The land that we live on was called "Duck Hill Farm"
back in the 1800's. We are very proud of this, as the tract of
land can be traced back as far as William Penn settling here.
We have been considering naming our school, Duck Hill Academy.

I liked all the names that I saw on your web site. Every name
was very creative and I thought I would share the name we selected
for our school. We call ourselves E*wHim Academy. This
means Education with Him (meaning our Lord and Saviour) in mind.
And we thought is looked alot like E-mail, because just about
everybody has it now.
Thank you for a chance to share.

Our Homeschool chosen name is "Eagles Nest Academy".
We learned that Eagles mate for life so this represents our Family's
stability. Nest symbolizes our Home and an Academy is a place
of learning.

Loved all the creative names on your website. Ours is GLOW
which stands for God leads our way. I made T-shirts with
the school logo as part of their "uniform". Don't like
when people stare and ask "Isn't he supposed to be in school?"

Hello!
I thought since I had to think hard about our name I would
see if you wanted to post it, but you don't have to. Our last
name is Gates and we are Christians, we also have a bigger family
too, so I finally came up with name for our school. 'HIS Gates
Quiver Academy'. I felt this summed it up pretty well, 'HIS'
being God's, 'Gates' identifies us, and 'Quiver' lends to the
full house we have as well as to the verse 'blessed is the man
with a full quiver...'. I am pleased with it so far and hope
it sticks!
Thank you for your time in this matter.

Being a bilingual family (Spanish/English), we chose "Mi
Casa School". "Mi Casa" means "my house"
in Spanish. We'll probably use it until the kids are older and
would like to change it.

Thought I would send you our Home School Chosen Name. Our
last name is Motes and we have a very talented 13 year old who
is a great artist with brothers who are following in his footsteps.
He likes signing his artwork with "MotesArt" Since
we think MotesArt is cool and we also love music (Mozart) we've
given our school the name "MotesArt Academy"
I was browsing and found a site linked to yours. I would like
to share our name with you. We are
The Mustard Seed Academy
If you have faith as small as a mustard seed, nothing is impossible.
We like it and think it describes us perfectly. Sometime faith
is all we have. And it is plenty. Thanks;

Hi! Was just reading your page on naming your homeschool, and wanted to share our name with you.
Growing up, both my husband and myself fell in love with Jean Craighead George's classic, My Side of the Mountain. As a way of memoralizing that for us, and encouraging reading and nature in our boys, we have names our school, My Side of the Mountain Learning.

We are thinking of naming our homeschool The Neverland
School. My son's last name is Neve and his first initial
is R, so it could also be written Neve,R Land School. (This is
his land, er, home after all.) This is also a reference to our
hopes that he holds onto his youth as long as he can.

We call our school SaturDays Cool (we jokingly say
we took the "h" out of school), and we are using an
art-based approach project work for children 5 - 12. Are you
familiar with the schools of Reggio Emilia and constructivism?
That's are context. This fall we will work with many Homeschoolers
during the week to offer them support. I am really enjoying reading
your very informative pages.
