“NHHG is a supportive Christian community; a parent-led, academic co-op with a full schedule of social activities as well. Centrally located in Dillsburg between Adams, York, Cumberland and Dauphin counties. We have a wide range of class offerings for secondary students and learning fun for the littlest ones. Our families keep that togetherness that is the hallmark of homeschooling. Each mom gets to contribute her special talents to bless others, and the setting provides opportunities for parents to pray together, support one another, and have fun together. This keeps the teaching and helping each week from being a burden!  We believe that as homeschoolers we can do it alone, but we can often do it better together. Come visit us!”
