First Steps in Homeschooling
Join us as we discuss starting to homeschool. This week we will being with a round robin of our panelists about curricula beyond math and English. Bring your questions (all questions are fair game!) and share your progress as you consider and potentially make the transition to homeschooling. We will meet for these informal discussions once a week for six weeks.
The following experienced homeschoolers will be on hand to answer questions and provide support.
