What is E.A.G.L.E.?
With its beginning in 1985, E.A.G.L.E. Homeschool was formed by a handful of parents who shared a common belief. They believed that children are a heritage and a gift from God and should be raised in the nurture and admonition of the Lord. Hence the name E.A.G.L.E. was chosen, which stands for Education Administered in a Godly Living Environment. We are a non-profit, volunteer organization that exists to encourage and assist families who are committed to the education of their children at home.
E.A.G.L.E. Homeschool offers sports to our members at the Junior Varsity and the Varsity Level. For boys, we haveflag football and basketball and we have volleyball for the girls.
E.A.G.L.E. is one of 10 private Christian Schools/Organizations that make up the local Tri-State Christian Conference. It is within this conference that we fellowship and compete. The winners of our conference tournaments also go on to compete at a state level within the Independent Christian School Association.
The money raised from this event, with your help, will pay for our sports supplies and/or as part of a love offering that we give to churches or other Christian organizations that allow us to use their facilities for our practices and games, to which we are truly grateful.
