Creative Home Educators' Support Services

Welcome to Creative Home Educators' Support Services, also known as CHESS! We have been meeting in the Lancaster county area for the past 20 plus years. We function as a support service for your family as you seek to home educate and disciple your children. Offering courses for grades 2-12, we emphasize the core subjects, as well as a variety of both one-semester and full-year electives. Our instructors strive to present rigorous classes to challenge your students to their full potential.

If you are interested in applying for classes at CHESS for the 2019-2020 school year, your first step is to fill out a new family registration form, found here:

• 2019-20 CHESS Registration for New Families

The 2019-20 Course Catalog can be found along the top tabs of this webpage.

Once you have submitted the registration, along with any additional required paperwork, to CHESS, c/o Sarah Eberly, 222 Schoolhouse Rd, Palmyra, PA 17078, you will be contacted to complete a family interview. This is to communicate the expectations for both students and parents upon enrollment at CHESS and to determine whether CHESS will help your family meet your homeschool goals.
