Parents and Community Members Leading the Way in Homeschool Education
We thought it was time to…….
Bring the Little Red Schoolhouse Back into our Community…
Let's Take a Lil Red Riverton Tour!
Think Little Red School House...with a modern Twist.
Lil Red is non profit organization supporting homeschool families by providing a “tiny home” customized as a @LilRedTinySchool. Lil Red is an RV style tiny structure that sits on a 8' x 30' trailer, making it mobile to be used as needed and where needed, and then hitched up and taken to its next home. Built for use by homeschool families, Lil Red's are placed in local neighborhoods and integrated into the community, making it conveniently located to homeschool family co-op members. It's like bringing the “little red country school house” of the old days back into the neighborhood, but with a modern twist!
Homeschooling is increasing exponentially year after year and Lil Red was formed to help families with some of the most pressing challenges - financial, physical space and connection. Our schools provide an immediate extension of the home and community, offering physical space for learning, social connection and homeschool activities, as well as providing a “school” identity and experience for the kids. As a non-profit, we are also able to assist with fundraising and financial contributions from the community as a qualified charitable tax deduction. It's all about coming together for the kids and creating the best possible environment for each child's success.
Integrated into the community, Lil Red is more than just a school building. We start by helping families take that first step into homeschool education with confidence and excitement and then we continue supporting them by building and fostering a community around Lil Red, Lil Red parents and Lil Red kiddos! Just like in the old days, when the school house was a centerpiece in the neighborhood, Lil Red is helping families step back in time, to take a step forward in creating the future they want for their children. In addition to normal homeschool activities on a daily basis, Lil Red is utilized for regular get-togethers, group activities, celebrations and events supporting the entire homeschool community.
It's why we're here and it's our passion!
We recognize that connection to each other and to our communities is the glue holding together our Lil Red vision. Your support is a key to our growth and we would love to have you join us in creating futures!
Watch Us Grow! Our goal is 1,000 Lil Red homeschool communities across the country by the year 2030 - a BIG goal, but we know we can do it! Join us and together, we will not only make it happen, but we'll also make it fun!

“One of the most exciting things for me has been the friendships that are made at Lil Red. I also feel like it has given me the confidence to feel like I could do homeschool in the future. I enjoy learning and collaborating with all the other parents as well. I think Lil Red is such an appealing place situated in a lovely neighborhood where everyone feels like they have a part.”

“We were lucky enough to find Lil Red right after moving into the neighborhood. It was such a blessing for my kids and I to meet other people and have an immediate group to be part of. My kids have loved the freedom to learn hands-on and then have time to free play with other children. When I decided to homeschool I knew I still wanted social experiences for them, and was so grateful for this in-between!”
Mikaela, Lil Red Mom

“We love Lil Red! It’s been the perfect place to start our homeschool journey. We love coming to school every week. It’s been the best environment to learn in. Both my kids ask to go to Lil Red multiple times a week and it’s always hard to leave once we get there because it’s so accommodating to them!”
