Empowering Families, Customizing Education
At Custom Class, we believe every child deserves a customized education — one that reflects their interests, values, and pace of learning. Our nonprofit program gives Utah families access to funding, flexibility, and community support to create learning experiences that truly fit their children. Here’s how we help families thrive:
All K–12 students are welcome, ensuring every child has the same opportunity to learn and receive support without barriers or bias.
Local centers provide safe spaces for study, projects, counseling, and workshops for both students and families.
The Funds You Need
Funding
Custom Class provides access to more funding than most educational programs, made available in a quick and simple way. Families can customize how their education funds are used — from curriculum and devices to extracurricular programs and learning materials — all aligned with your family’s goals and needs. With funds available directly through our app, it’s never been easier to customize your child’s learning experience.
Choose Your Curriculum
Freedom
Enjoy the freedom to choose what and how your child learns. Whether that’s a hands-on science curriculum, a nature-based learning approach, or an online course that fuels their passion, Custom Class supports your ability to select the best options. You remain in charge of your child’s educational direction while having the tools and flexibility to make it truly meaningful.
You Are Not Alone
Community
You’re never alone in your journey. Custom Class connects you with a supportive network of Community Liaisons, Educators, and Families who also customize their children’s learning. Join in-person workshops, meetups, and family activities to share ideas and experiences. Our Family Service Centers provide spaces for learning, collaboration, and friendship — helping families grow together.
On Our Mobile App
Convenience
Managing your child’s education shouldn’t feel like a full-time job. Our Custom Class mobile app makes everything simple — from making weekly progress posts (like learning logs) to submitting receipts or requesting direct payments. Snap a picture and get quick reimbursements with an easy-to-use interface on our app, you can focus on what really matters: your child’s growth.
Focus On Interests
Opportunity
Custom Class opens the door to incredible learning opportunities. Students can explore passions and career interests through partnerships with community organizations, local businesses, and higher education institutions. Older students can even earn college credit — up to a bachelor’s degree — while still enrolled in our program. Whatever your child dreams of, we help create the pathway to get there.
Schedule On Your Terms
Flexibility
School should fit your life, not the other way around. Custom Class lets you design your child’s schedule on your terms — both daily and throughout the year. Choose four out of six learning terms to match your family’s rhythm:
-
Fall: Mid August – Mid October
-
Early Winter: Mid October – December
-
Late Winter: January – Mid March
-
Spring: Mid March – Mid May
-
Early Summer: Mid May – June
-
Late Summer: July – Mid August
With this flexibility, you can travel, explore, and learn together year-round — without the constraints of a traditional school calendar.
