A private Christian school called Mountain House Academy is expected to open in Dillon this fall.
Erica Bull is a local parent who home-schooled her kids for the first time this year, and after seeing her children thrive in that environment, she had the idea to start a school that would implement some aspects of the experience.
“We’re excited about reimagining what education can look like,” Bull said in an email.
The school will offer flexible options for parents to enroll their kids in full or half days, with the possibility for experiential and excursion learning in the future. Students enrolled at Mountain House Academy will have in-person classes with a teacher three days a week, and they will take part at-home learning directed by the teacher Mondays and Fridays.
