Lightning Literature & Composition Grade 2 Pack

In 1963-64, the original founders of Hewitt identified a group of professional men and women who were concerned about trends in health, education, welfare, and the family and decided to put their concerns into action. They organized first as Cedar Springs Foundation, and in 1964 were approved as a 501(c)(3) public charity by the Internal Revenue Service. The Foundation was renamed Hewitt Research Foundation in 1969 to honor its co-founder Carl Hewitt. Dr. Raymond Moore, the other co-founder, served as director until 1987. His work was published in Time, Newsday, and Columbia University’s Teachers College Record. He was also the author of several books such as Home Grown Kids, School Can Wait, and Home-Style Teaching all of which placed Hewitt at the forefront of the home-schooling movement.

The Foundation became a not-for-profit California corporation with a mission  to equip families to educate their own children using the best resources available.

Hewitt Homeschooling has continued to follow a balanced, flexible approach to homeschooling throughout the years. Our emphasis includes combining excellent academics with character development, instilling work ethic, and developing a spirit of community service in the next generation.

Until 2019, Hewitt operated out of an 8,750-sq. ft. facility in Washougal, Washington with a staff dedicated to carrying out the mission of Hewitt Research Foundation.

With a current client base of over 30,000, Hewitt’s operation is currently divided into three sectors: Services, Products, and Testing.  We offer services for students from kindergarten age through high-school graduation, including:

1. curricula,
2. standardized testing for grades three through eight with our own PASS test which was specifically written for homeschoolers, and
3. curriculum recommendations, counseling, transcripts, and written evaluations for students from junior high through high school
