About Us

​

Who We Are

Grow Your Mind Academy Foundation, Inc. was created by homeschool parents who understand the challenges, joys, and dedication of guiding your child’s education. We believe learning should be meaningful, flexible, and supported by a strong community — and that’s exactly what we are building for homeschooling families across Tooele, Salt Lake, Utah, and surrounding counties.

​

Our Foundation supports families through a co-op model, where parents, students, and educators all contribute to creating a thriving homeschool community. Families can participate by teaching, assisting, helping with events, or supporting student activities — ensuring that everyone has a role in shaping the learning environment.

We are also in the process of opening a Homeschool Resource Center, a dedicated space for curriculum materials, technology, study spaces, and collaborative learning opportunities that complement both online and in-person programs.

​

Our Mission

Our mission is to provide families with resources, online and in-person classes, and meaningful connections that encourage growth for both students and parents. Through our programs:

  • Children develop friendships, leadership skills, and social confidence

  • Parents gain encouragement, support, and opportunities to contribute to the co-op community

  • Educators are empowered to share their knowledge and skills

All of this happens within a flexible, family-centered environment designed to support homeschool lifestyles.

​

Our Philosophy

Together, we are:

  • Growing minds

  • Building confidence

  • Strengthening the homeschooling community

At Grow Your Mind Academy Foundation, families don’t have to homeschool alone — we grow better, together.

About Me:

​

Hi, I’m Jade! I am a homeschool mom of three , I am passionate about learning, growth, and creating meaningful educational experiences. Homeschooling has allowed me to teach my children in a way that supports their strengths, encourages curiosity, and nurtures who they are becoming.

​

I truly enjoy being part of their learning journey and helping them discover the world in a way that feels inspiring and personal. Through Grow Your Mind Academy, I hope to support other families on the same path and help build a strong, encouraging homeschool community.
