Our Story
Why House of Emet Exists
House of Emet was built for families who believe education should do more than check boxes.I’m the founder of House of Emet, and like many parents and educators, I saw firsthand how traditional classrooms often miss the heart of a child. Large class sizes, rigid pacing, and an overemphasis on performance can leave students unseen, overwhelmed, or quietly falling behind.I knew there had to be a better way.House of Emet was created as a small, intentional micro-school where children are known, challenged, and supported as whole people — academically, emotionally, and spiritually. The name Emet is the Hebrew word for truth, and that truth shapes everything we do here: truth about who children are, how they learn best, and what they need to grow with confidence and purpose.
What Makes House of Emet Different
At House of Emet, learning happens in small groups through meaningful, project-based experiences. Students aren’t rushed through content or reduced to test scores. Instead, they are given time, guidance, and space to think deeply, ask questions, and build understanding that lasts.
Our approach is rooted in:
Small class sizes and personalized instruction
Project-based learning that connects academics to real life
Strong relationships between teacher and student
A calm, structured environment where children feel safe to try, fail, and grow
This isn’t about doing less school.
It’s about doing school with intention.
A Faith-Rooted Foundation
House of Emet is a private Christian microschool, grounded in the belief that every child is created with purpose. Faith informs our values, our approach to discipline, and how we care for students — with wisdom, patience, and respect.While families come from different backgrounds, our foundation remains the same: truth, integrity, and the belief that education should shape both character and competence.

As a founder, I am hands-on by design. I know each student. I work closely with families.
