OUR FIRST YEAR HOMESCHOOLING 2017
Hello,
Thank you for your interest in our program. I hope you find a class that fits your child. As a homeschool parent, I understand the challenges we sometimes face when planning for project-based learning. I don’t know about you, but I know there were definitely times that I put some of our projects on the back burner for a variety of reasons. But those hands-on projects with my son were my favorite part of homechooling! Now, with my son off to public high school, I decided to take something I always loved about homeschooling and turn it into a service to offer to other families in our community.
