Our long-term vision includes the development of Lifted Academy, a faith-centered microschool and community-oriented learning environment designed to integrate Christian practices with experiential education, outdoor immersion, creativity, mentorship, and holistic family support.
We believe many children and families today are longing for slower, more intentional rhythms of life that foster belonging, resilience, purpose, gratitude, and spiritual formation within authentic and relational community settings. Through outdoor gatherings, mentorship programs, camps, family-centered events, experiential learning opportunities, and future microschool initiatives, we hope to create accessible spaces where individuals can explore and practice meaningful expressions of Christian life together.
Designed specifically for homeschool families, each group combines mountain biking, games, skill development, outdoor exploration, and Christ-centered encouragement in a fun and welcoming environment.
Lifted Studio exists to cultivate creativity, confidence, and community through music. Founder Joseph Olivarez brings his musical education from Carnegie Mellon University to teach guitar, piano, drums, and ukulele in an encouraging environment where students can discover their gifts, develop discipline, and experience the lifelong joy of making music together.
