Loon Lake Home-Link

Loon Lake School District offers the Loon Lake Home-link (LLHL) Program to families in the area, and can accept out-of-district students as well. The purpose of this program is to provide support to those parents educating their kindergarten-eighth grade students at home.  This past year, LLHL served over 100 students. Some of those students came to on-site classes, and some were “Distance Learners” only.

The Home-link building is located behind the Old Loon Lake School (now the Historical Society).

The school year program provides:

  • Appropriate curriculum and instructional materials
  • Consultation
  • Testing

Enrichment activities, workshops, and field trips are also available as funding allows. These include:

  • Ski program
  • Christian Youth Theater (CYT) plays
  • Greenbluff
  • The MAC
  • Mobius Science
  • Cat Tails
  • Roller skating

While the school year runs September-June, on-site enrichment activities and classes are offered on Fridays beginning in October. This year, the Home-link Program will offer classes for the on-site students in grades K-8th

  • Art
  • Hands-on-science
  • History
  • Physical education
  • Puppetry
  • Writing
  • Early learners
  • Stained glass (for 4th-8th graders)  

Certified teachers help families meet the requirements for academic achievement. The Home-Link has several classrooms, including a computer room, curriculum library, kitchen facility, and parent’s room for families with babies and small children. In addition, the Home-Link students use the elementary school gym for P.E. classes.  

If you are interested in 2018-19 enrollment for your students educating at home, please email (preferred) [email protected] or call the Home-Link office at 233-8185. Please leave a message.
