For Parents

Homeschooling is a lot. Your portal shouldn't be.

Propolis is the home base for Florida homeschool families — scholarship tracking, 8,000+ Step Up-approved providers, co-op life, and every child's records in one calm, organized hive.

The Honeycomb

"What's next, Mom?" — answered before they ask.

Think Skylight, but built for homeschool. Each child logs into their own Honeycomb — a single, focused dashboard that turns today's tasks into 37 hexagons. Finish a mission, fill a cell, earn honey points. Finish the comb, finish the day — and unlock the reward you and your child set together.

  • Always-on family display, or on their own tablet
  • Missions you (or their co-op teacher) set the night before
  • Honey points, streaks, and parent-approved rewards
  • One tap into the right class, Zoom, or assignment
  • No feeds. No notifications. No rabbit holes.

Why Parents Use Propolis

Built around the way you actually homeschool.

The problem

Finding the right providers

"I need a math tutor near me, but how do I know they take Step Up?"

8,000+ approved Florida providers, filtered for you

Search the marketplace by category, distance, and Step Up eligibility. Save favorites and request enrollment in a tap — no more spreadsheets of half-vetted tutors.

The problem

Organizing the homeschool day

"It's 9:14am and I still don't know what each kid is doing today."

Every child's day, in one calm view

Per-child checklists, calendars, and assignments live in one portal. Kids see their own missions in the Honeycomb; you see the whole family at a glance.

The problem

Keeping track of scholarship funds

"Did I already use my Q2 funds? Let me check the Step Up portal… again."

Always know exactly what's left

A live balance per child with quarterly deposits, planned vs. spent, attached receipts, and an alert before you overspend. Reimbursement-ready year-round.

The problem

Keeping up with the co-op

"Co-op announcements live in 4 different Facebook groups."

Your co-op in one inbox

Schedules, announcements, invoices, and volunteer hours show up in the same portal you already use — instead of scattered across email, group chats, and Facebook.

And Ziggy, in the corner

The opposite of an AI answer machine.

Ziggy doesn't hand kids the answer. Ziggy nudges, asks the better question, and points them back to the work. A quiet coach inside the Honeycomb — designed to build focus and critical thinking, not dependence on a chatbot.

  • • Socratic prompts instead of answers
  • • Motivational nudges when momentum stalls
  • • Celebrates streaks and finished combs
  • • Zero open-ended chat, zero rabbit holes
Inside the Hive

Every comb a parent needs.

Scholarship Tracker

Track Step Up funds per child with quarterly deposits and a real-time remaining balance.

Plan expenses before you spend them, attach receipts, and stop juggling spreadsheets between quarters.

Provider Marketplace

8,000+ Step Up-approved Florida providers — tutors, therapists, enrichment, and more.

Search by category, distance, and eligibility. Save providers to your hive and request services without leaving Propolis.

Per-Child Records

Each child gets their own profile, expenses, providers, and curriculum checklists.

Switch between children in one tap. No more parallel spreadsheets or duplicate logins.

Receipt Storage

Upload receipts straight to each expense — PDF, image, or screenshot.

Reimbursement audits become a 30-second export instead of a weekend.

Co-Op Membership

If your child's co-op uses Propolis, you'll see schedules, attendance, invoices, and announcements right here.

Volunteer hours, yearbook photo drives, and Culture Board posts in the same portal you already use.

Calendar Sync

Subscribe co-op and provider events to Google, Apple, or Outlook with one iCal link.

Class days, field trips, and tutoring sessions all show up in your family calendar automatically.

Curriculum Checklists

Track what each child is learning and tick items off as you go.

Co-op teachers can suggest items; you stay in control of what counts for your homeschool.

Hive Guide

An onboarding companion that learns your setup and points you to the next useful step.

From your first child profile to your first scholarship deposit, you're never poking around alone.

Direct Messaging

Reach co-op directors, teachers, and providers without leaving Propolis.

Threaded conversations stay tied to the right child and the right context — no more lost DMs.

How It Works

From scholarship award to school year, in one place.

1

Create your hive

Sign up free, add your children, and (optionally) connect your Step Up award. Setup takes less than five minutes.

2

Track your scholarship

Log expenses as planned, pending, or spent. See your remaining balance per child and per quarter — before you overspend, not after.

3

Find approved providers

Browse the Florida marketplace, filter by what your child needs, and request services from inside Propolis.

4

Live the school year

If you're in a Propolis co-op, your schedule, announcements, invoices, and volunteer hours show up in the same portal.

5

Stay reimbursement-ready

Receipts live with their expenses. Export a clean report any time Step Up — or your CPA — needs one.

Free to start

Honey Starter is free. Forever.

Browse the marketplace, track one child with up to three expenses, and explore the hive. Upgrade to Hive Pro when you're ready for unlimited children, full receipt storage, and the parent toolkit.
