Fall 2025 Enrichment Program

Welcome to the Hidden Bee Learning Enrichment Program—an exciting, hands-on learning experience designed to spark curiosity, foster creativity, and encourage collaboration! Our program provides a dynamic and supportive environment where children can explore new ideas, develop critical thinking skills, and engage in meaningful projects.

Children ages 6-11 are invited to join us for engaging activities tailored to their ability levels. Some 6-year-olds may need to join the Little Explorers program based on an assessment of their learning readiness.

This is NOT a pay-as-you-go program. Payments are made weekly and cover the entire semester, including holidays and breaks. This pricing reflects the extended hours and the resources required to provide high-quality activities, additional staff, and engaging materials.

If you’d like to set up a biweekly or monthly payment plan, just reach out—we’re happy to arrange that for you!

Automatic Enrollment

Students are automatically enrolled in the following semester unless families request to be removed. This ensures continuity in learning and secures your child’s spot in the program.

Important Notes:

Signing up does not automatically guarantee a spot, as spaces fill quickly. If a spot is unavailable, your deposit will be refunded.
If you are offered a spot but choose not to take it, the deposit is non-refundable.
For returning families, deposits roll over to the next semester if you continue, but a new enrollment form must be completed to confirm your spot.
We follow the Maury County School calendar for holidays, with a few exceptions to accommodate program-specific needs.

Program Highlights

Extended Projects: Longer sessions allow children to dive into multi-day projects, such as science experiments, collaborative art pieces, and problem-solving activities.
Small Group Learning: Groups are tailored to ability levels when needed, ensuring personalized attention and meaningful learning experiences.
Guest Speakers and Field Trips: This semester, we’re excited to introduce engaging guest speakers and off-site field trips to complement the hands-on learning at the farm.
Weekly Updates: Families will receive weekly emails detailing projects and activities, so learning can continue at home if desired.

Learning Approach: See It, Say It, Read It, Write It

We implement the See It, Say It, Read It, Write It program as the foundation of our learning approach. This program engages children through multisensory activities that enhance understanding and retention.

See It: Children watch videos, view pictures, and participate in hands-on projects like art and science experiments to visually engage with new topics.
Say It: Group discussions, storytelling, and Q&A sessions encourage children to articulate what they’ve seen and learned, building their confidence and communication skills.
Read It: Students engage with age-appropriate literature, both independently and in guided reading sessions. Books will also be read aloud as a group, followed by discussions to dive into characters, themes, and lessons.
Write It: To tie everything together, students express their learning through writing, drawing, or journaling, showcasing their understanding creatively.

Specialty Programs

Specialty programs, such as the highly popular Musical Theater Minis and Book Buddies, will be posted separately with their own details and schedules. Keep an eye out for updates to enroll in these exciting opportunities!

Teacher and Aide Information

All teachers and aides are fingerprinted as part of our safety and security measures. We maintain a structured environment with a low student-to-teacher ratio to ensure personalized attention and support for every child.

Snack & Lunch Break

Children will enjoy a mid-morning snack and a lunch break during the session. We ask that families:

Pack reusable containers and minimize single-use packaging to support our trash-free farm initiative.
Include a water bottle and nutritious options for their child’s meals.
Be mindful that even small bits of trash can harm farm animals, so every effort to reduce waste makes a big difference.

A Supportive Learning Environment

At Hidden Bee Farm, we’re passionate about creating an enriching homeschool experience. Our program fosters creativity, collaboration, and a love for learning in a supportive and engaging environment. From hands-on projects to group learning activities, we offer a dynamic and tailored approach to education that your child will love.

We embrace every child’s unique learning style while maintaining a structured program. This balance allows us to provide a supportive and adaptable environment where all types of learners can thrive and succeed.
