Welcome
Raising Free is a parent-led homeschool co-op in Prince George’s County, MD. We believe children thrive when they are grounded in belonging and free to explore the world around them.
Our Co-Op is Built on 4 Pillars
Together, we are raising free, curious, confident kids — supported by a community of families who share the same values.
Social-Emotional Learning (SEL): Helping children recognize feelings, build empathy, and practice communication.
Socialization: Opportunities to form friendships and practice teamwork.
Learning Through Play: Exploration, creativity, and problem-solving in every activity.
Field Trips: From parks and farms to museums and cultural sites, our meetups are designed to spark curiosity, build friendships, and create lasting memories.
What We Offer
Our approach is simple yet deeply intentional. We give families the support, connection, and meaningful experiences that nurture children into confident, emotionally intelligent adults.

Starting Raising Free has been one of the most rewarding experiences of my life. Watching my son build real friendships, explore new places, and grow in confidence has shown me just how powerful community-based learning can be. This co-op isn’t just about academics, it’s about raising curious, connected kids who know they belong.
