Our CARD Homeschool Director, Ms. Dallas, is excited to create programming full of laughter and learning that is not confined to the four walls of a classroom but instead expands into the great outdoors and the realms of creativity. In our programs for homeschooled kids, every day is an opportunity to explore, create, and learn in ways that ignite curiosity and passion. From hands-on science experiments that fizz and bubble with excitement to outdoor adventures that unveil the wonders of nature, our programs are designed to inspire young minds and forge friendships that will last a lifetime. Join us for CARD’s Homeschool Programs—where the journey is just beginning, and the wonders never cease.

We always want to hear from you! As we continue to refine and cultivate programming for homeschoolers, we would love your feedback!  Help us serve you by filling out this quick 3-5 minute survey at: https://bit.ly/CARDHomeschool

Gymnastics - Bouncing Beginners 

We begin to focus more on specific beginning gymnastics moves and equipment while still incorporating plenty of obstacle courses, learning games and exciting skills drills. Once a child has gained all skills in the beginning class, they are cleared to move to the next (Intermediate). Class begins with a group warm – up and ends with conditioning drills to help keep the kids in shape!

Attire – Girls: A leotard. Tight fitting shorts or pants may be worn. Boys: A shirt and shorts that are not too loose. Leotards and more are available at Kinetics dancewear store.
