    fhedu (FHEdu - Forsyth Home Educators E-Loop) - The FHEdu E-Loop is an extension of Forsyth Home Educators. FHE is a homeschool support group in Forsyth County, located in the Piedmont Triad of North Carolina. Most of our members live in the Winston-Salem area, but we welcome home educators in the counties surrounding Forsyth including Stokes, Yadkin, Surry, Davie, Davidson, Guilford and Rockingham.

    Formed in 1989, FHE represents over 200 families educating children in our homes. Although guided by Christian principle and practice, the group welcomes everyone. We acknowledge our responsibility as parents to be the primary educators of our children. Each homeschool is as diverse as the needs and preferences of each unique family.

    The members of the FHEdu E-Loop exchange a variety of information to assist in our daily lives as homeschoolers. Perhaps even more important, we are a community where we encourage one another in our homeschool way of life.

    Membership to the FHEdu E-Loop is open to anyone (per approval) who is considering homeschooling, plans to homeschool, is currently homeschooling or has graduated homeschooled children!

    GIFTSNC - GIFTSNC is a special place for parents in North Carolina who homeschool one or more children with physical, developmental, medical, communication or learning challenges. GIFTSNC is the place to discuss and exchange ideas regarding: curriculum choices and modifications, medical and therapy issues, providing social opportunities and so much more. GIFTSNC is a place where we can support each other as we work to meet the daily challenges of rearing, guiding and teaching all our children. A brief, family bio is required and will be requested on all pending memberships. This bio will also be used as an introduction to the group.

    FYI: We started as a North Caroina specific group and are still predominantly NC residents which means that we have some communication that is specific to NC or areas within NC. Since we are a large group, I encourage smaller groups of members to meet for parent meetings, field trips, etc. These small group communications are also encouraged on the larger GIFTSNC group. This allows for a continued small group feel allowing us to continue sharing and encouraging each other through this life journey!
