Built for learners who
don't fit the standard mold.
Independent Education Network (IEN) was founded on a simple belief: education should feel like freedom — for students and teachers alike. We're building a space where students can truly thrive, and teachers can truly teach.
Small, intentional groups
Every course runs with just 6–10 students. Teachers know their students' names, strengths, and where they need support — because real learning requires real attention.
Expert, passionate educators
Our teachers are specialists who love their subjects. They design their own curriculum, choose their own methods, and show up because they genuinely want to be here.
Flexible, virtual learning
All classes meet once a week on Zoom. No commute, no rigid schedules — just engaging, live instruction that fits your family's life.
A small community by design
IEN is intentionally small right now. Families who join this summer and fall won't get lost in a crowd. They'll know their teachers, and their teachers will know them. That's not a limitation. It's the point.
"We're building a space where students can learn in an environment that is supportive, affirming, and genuinely challenging — free to grow into who they're meant to be."
The IEN Mission
Three steps to finding
your perfect fit.
Attend an Open House
Join us on Zoom for a free 60-minute open house. Pick a subject you're curious about, meet the teacher, and experience a real mini lesson. No commitment required.
Enroll in Summer
Our 6-week summer session runs June 22–July 31, a focused, low-commitment way to experience IEN before the full fall launch. Open house families receive a discount on tuition.
Launch into Fall
Summer families get early access to fall registration before it opens to the public — plus a returning family discount on our full 8-week fall session starting September 8th.
Nine subjects. One flexible community.
Summer session begins June 22nd. Open houses run April & May to help you find your fit before enrolling. Full fall launch September 8th. All courses are live on Zoom, once per week, grades 6–8.
Learning that meets your
family where you are.
Homeschool Families
Supplement your curriculum with expert-led courses in the subjects where your student needs depth, rigor, or community — without giving up the flexibility of homeschooling.
Non-Traditional Learners
Whether your student struggles in traditional classrooms, learns differently, or thrives in smaller settings, IEN is designed for students who need something different to succeed.
Enrichment Seekers
For families who want more — deeper learning in a subject your student loves, an extra challenge, or something entirely new like French or Pattern Making.
Come see if IEN is the right fit!
