Creating Leaders AND Scholars—FPE Statesmanship Training Freedom
Should we graduate homeschoolers keenly aware of their nation’s history? Able to defend the truth of America’s Godly heritage? Conversant in the processes and principles of good government? Shouldn’t this be a priority? Can this knowledge change the direction of our nation? Inarguably, YES, it can! FPE’s Christian conservative instructors utilize both the best homeschool curriculum and an entire array of excellent and unique texts and materials. This little known, well researched supporting documentation creates a deeper understanding in a
tangible, practical manner. We bring history and the value of the unique biblically-based system of government designed by our founders to life. Our teachers help students AND parents understand correct historical dogma in favor of the factual truth of our heritage. We work WITH parents, FOR families, to build understanding of our nation, and it’s historical acknowledgement of our Creator and our God-given rights in our American Studies courses.

Teaching Heritage and History Through Heroes
Catching imagination and sparking interest in any subject is more powerful through personal connections. Weaving into lessons the vivid lives of heroes and heroines of history, faith, and legend, cements concepts and principles for a lifetime. Learn to be a storyteller and become a guide to a bright new world for students through biographies and stories.
