Capital Homeschool Athletic Program (CHAP) aims to serve Jesus Christ, homeschool parents, and their children. Our mission is to provide homeschool children with opportunities to develop physically and spiritually through competitive athletics, while learning to exhibit Christ-like character.

Established in 2002, the CHAP Chariots Homeschool Athletics program has expanded to offer a range of interscholastic sports. In the fall, we provide girls' volleyball from elementary to varsity levels and cross country for both girls and boys from junior high to varsity levels. During the winter, we offer basketball teams for both girls and boys from youth to varsity levels. In the spring, we offer track and field programs for girls and boys from junior high to varsity levels.
