Our
children may know what the "alphabet"and the "numbers" are by
themselves, but do they know how these numbers are important to Heavenly
Father and how they are used in the scriptures?
Do they know how to love to serve others through Language? This
concept, as a parent, I have not taught my daughter nor even
contemplated teaching her before being introduced to Kimber's
Curriculum. I have realized that these basic sections are more than just
learning letters and more than just learning numbers, Heavenly Father
created everything. He numbers everything He creates because it is
important to Him, and He wants us to serve those around us and what
better way to learn this through Language. When our children can learn
these fundamentals and their importance to God, I know that the
children's learning and love for learning will grow tremendously from
this. I have seen such joy in the children as they do their service
project each week and serve a friend. They are loving math and get
excited to learn a new number each day and create that number and its
importance in the eyes of our Heavenly Father.
This is an amazing spiritual growing experience for your child and I can say, it is also a growing experience as a parent, and teacher......-A Kimber Parent/Teacher 11/03/2014

My experience with Kimber Academy has been very positive. Our family has had some type of interaction with this school for about 10 years, whether it was been through attending the school itself to using the curriculum in our homeschooling studies. Our youngest son is in his 4th year of attending Kimber Academy.
There are many things we love about this school. We love that the spirit is so strong every day in the school building. Because of his and because the spirit is brought into each subject, my son has learned how to recognize the spirit in his life.
The curriculum has been a great help in our children’s education. We have found that as we use these books, our son is learning not only about in depth study of these subjects (which are Book of Mormon, Language Arts, Math, Science, and History), he is also learning how to serve others, how to search and apply the scriptures in each of these subjects, how to ponder what he is learning, and how to self-govern.
We love how the curriculum
includes so much information that has been removed from text books in
our public schools. He is also learning how to use other resources like
the library, books found in used book stores, and the internet to expand
his knowledge on each of the subjects and also subjects that he is of
interest to him.
The curriculum does a great job teaching children how to self-govern which is a great skill all children should learn as they become adults.......- An anonymous Kimber Parent. 11/3/2014

This is our first year attending Kimber Academy. I, as a parent, am so thankful that there are more options for education, in teaching our children the things that matter most. I wanted to home school my kids but felt like I needed a little help as well. I love how involved I can be with the school and in teaching the curriculum at home too. I see Kimber as more of a partnership between them and me both teaching my child the things I want him to learn. It is so fun to see our little boy learning so much and enjoying school! We feel like our family has become closer and stronger as we have had many opportunities to feel the spirit as we discuss topics that had been learned that day at school. There are many learning opportunities for the parents too, and I love that! There is so much to learn and I love seeing my son thrive in such a peaceful environment......- An anonymous Parent. 10/272014
Last year we choose to join the Home school life. We were nervous at first but we chose to use the Kimber Academy curriculum and it was amazing. With the sucsess we had last year with the curriculme we decided to enroll in the Academy this year and even though it has only been a couple of months we have already seen a huge change in our daughter. Her willingness to get up and get ready is all her own drive. She comes home with so much to talk about and to share with anyone willing to listen. She is always begging to have me sit down and work more with her out of her books. So grateful that we are able to go as FAST or as SLOW in the curriculum as we want/need. The influence THE SPIRIT has had on our family is hard to put into words. ALL POSSATIVE of course and amazing changes. We look forward to what the future holds as we continue on this path that The Lord and put before us.........-A Kimber Mom.10/27/2014
A 17 year old's testimony about Kimber Academy:
The things I have learned at Kimber Academy will always influence me. I love learning about America and our Founding Fathers. I love learning how our founders were self-educators, and how at Kimber Academy we can be too, with the structure of more time at home to follow our desires. I love learning how the founders were dedicated to principles of freedom and all of them pledged their lives in defending them. Last week I learned at what cost these men went through and what they gave up. Many of them lost their homes, money and children, all by choice, so I could have these freedoms. I love how they were directed by God and duty, not by man.
Our freedoms are
being taken away again. At Kimber Academy, we are being taught 28
principles of freedom the founders knew and defended. These principles
are simple and easy to understand. We can stop what is happening in
America by learning these, and then going and doing, and teaching others
these. We need to be like Captain Moroni- where the very powers of hell
would shake, by being like him and raising our title of liberty.Kimber Academy, is so great because it is a movement in learning to think and be like the founders. 17 yr old student. 10/27/2014
