About Us

Welcome – Akwaaba O!

Fahodi Shule Homeschool Cooperative is a village institution, a village of families. Parents are the first, and primary, teachers of their children. Each child is an invaluable pillar in the Afrikan nation and it is the responsibility of the parents to cultivate the wealth of their genius. We stand in solidarity with other homeschooling families to educate our children together, building them up spiritually, emotionally, mentally and academically in a society where they are devalued on every hand. We embrace the fullness of the wisdom and culture of our Afrikan Ancestors, it is central to all that we do. We do not celebrate/recognize European or Arabic holidays. We are African centered. Our starting place in any instruction is Africa and Her children throughout the Diaspora, just as it is for all of civilization. Our vision is for our children (watoto) to become successful life-long learners and valuable members of the world community.
As families we look to create a space for students that has high expectations and centers around the needs of the community. Building strong, long-lasting, successful relationships in our families, communities, and village institutions is one of our greatest challenges, and a critical part of our nation-building work which is, healing, repairing and restoring the hearts, minds and spirits of our people, especially our youth. Incorporating the principle of Ujima, working together we will be able to reach both our collective and individual goals. Together we look forward to celebrating the success of every child participating in Fahodi Shule. On behalf of our family, we look forward to working together to provide an exciting, enriching addition to your homeschooling experience. Ase!
