This event is now over. Thank you to everyone who participated.

Homeschool In-Service


1. Are you a homeschool parent?

2. Could you use some help with that?

3. Could you use a (two hour) break from that?

If you answered yes to any of the above questions, or various others not here listed, then you need to do yourself a favor and attend our Homeschool Teachers' (AKA Parents') In-Service.

More of a slow decision maker? No problem. Same here. Continue reading/thinking this through with us below.

If you answered yes to one of the above questions, then you probably answered yes to all of the above questions. Which, per question three, implies you need a break. More specifically, you need an in-service. Public school teachers get them, after all — why shouldn't you?

So, for you, and, honestly, for ourselves, we decided to create the world's first (as far as we know) Virtual Homeschool In-Service.

Our goals are to give everybody a break, to share ideas, and to come away with stellar insights that will help things go more smoothly once we get back at it.

So, join us and other homeschool parents online on March 19th, 2021 at 3:00 PM U.S. Eastern / Noon Pacific. Scroll back up now to sign up. Or ...

Read on for the thrilling line-up.

Interactive Q&A

You have questions. We have (or can fabricate) answers.

Babysitting

Just kidding. This is a virtual event after all. But we're going to (attempt to) keep the younglings occupied for at least some of it. We'll have an art class for older kids and some prepped activities for little ones, so mom and/or dad can focus.

Wine & Cheese Reception

Provided by you, at home, for yourself.
(While chit-chatting remotely with other homeschool parents.)

OK, that's what we've got. Time to fill out that form now. Go ahead. Scroll on up and make it happen. It's free. You have nothing to lose. Your future, re-energized, wow-I-needed-that self will thank you.

See you March 19th
