Who We Are

A Family-Led Homeschool Cooperative in Southeastern Idaho

Waymakers Homeschool Community is a welcoming, family-centered co-op created to support homeschooling parents and give children meaningful opportunities to learn, connect, and grow. We offer a fun, encouraging environment where kids can build friendships, explore new interests, and enjoy classes, field trips and community activities alongside other homeschooling families.

At Waymakers, we value connection, shared responsibility, and creating a place where both parents and children feel supported, included, and excited to be part of something special.

We are located in Idaho Falls, but we serve families in Rigby, Rexburg and Blackfoot too! We offer three sessions each year, fall, winter, and spring, with weekly classes, field trips, mom meetups, and special community events woven into each season. Classes are available for children starting at age 3, with nursery care for ages 2 and under, and offerings for older students as well. Waymakers runs because families work together, with parent participation helping create a welcoming, organized, and engaging environment where both children and parents can build friendships, explore interests, and be part of a strong homeschool community.

Join us for weekly classes, playdates, and exciting field trips that make learning an adventure for both parents and kids.
