Join us for a discussion about educational philosophies, learning styles, deschooling, and how to homeschool by using materials and resources available for free on the Internet, at the library, or in your community.

Approximately 25 percent of homeschooling families have at least one student with special needs. These special needs can be physical, emotional, or educational. Dealing with these unique needs means creating a unique supportive learning environment. A panel of experts in various fields will help you better understand how best to meet your child’s unique situation and succeed beyond your wildest dreams.
November 11, 2020 – TBD – Homeschooling 102
As we retreat indoors for winter we also should reevaluate our educational choices. Are you looking for changes? What is working and what is not? Are you needing to add something or, perhaps, eliminate something? Do you need a non-judgmental sounding board for your worries or ideas? Do you need a reminder of homeschooling laws or educational philosophies? Join us as we cover these topics and more!
