This is a support group for Buddhist homeschoolers in the New England region -- Maine, New Hampshire, Connecticut, Massachusetts, Rhode Island and Vermont. Here we can talk about how we home-school with Buddhist ethics in mind. How do we live the 4 Noble Truths and the Eightfold Path in our culture?

When we are large enough, we will hold monthly or even weekly meetings, field trips, meditation circles and other neat homeschooling things. Eventually, we will also plan a yearly retreat for Buddhists and home school families in the New England region.

Feel free to join us if you have been a Buddhist home school family for years or are merely interested in it.

We welcome people who are interested in participating (and helping to organize) some of the activities we are planning. On this list, we are privileged to have Orthodox Jews, Conservative Jews, Reform Jews, Reconstructionist Jews, secular Jews. We DON'T have so-called Messianic Jews (Jews for Jesus).

There is no proselytizing allowed on this list. This list is NOT for discussing religious politics or "how" to be a Jew. It's primary goal is to make friends and organize gatherings. Note: NonJews married to Jews and raising their children as Jews or with Jewish traditions are also welcome.

Started in March 2001, this group has migrated here from another email list site. We also have a new organization site: http://www.nemen.net. Old site that still retains resources: http://www.geocities.com/nemuslimeducators.

We ask that you post at least once a week. Lurkers will not be allowed and will eventually be deleted. Please keep conversations uplifting. New members will be put on temporary moderation.

People who live in Vermont and either homeschool or plan to homeschool their children are invited to discuss events and issues. This message board is a clearinghouse of information that will not only help parents to home educate their children but will also enable Vermont homeschoolers to exercise, promote, and protect their right to homeschool their children. This message board does not promote or advocate any particular educational approach, religious conviction, political stance, or any other view or philosophy of homeschooling parents. This group is for a broad-spectrum of homeschoolers and is exclusively about homeschooling issues. Vermont homeschoolers need to have a place where we can all stand together to discuss issues relevant to home schooling, even though we have different philosophical view points. There are parents on this message board from both ends of just about any spectrum you can name. We stand together as homeschoolers. ~~~ You will find a list of group rules in the file section.

This does not mean we don't welcome those with religious beliefs. We welcome those who wish to belong to a homeschool community that supports an appreciation for diversity, respect and open-mindedness for people of all beliefs, orientations, and lifestyles.

Use this list to post or read about educational or social events or opportunities in the greater Rutland Vermont area that you think might be of interest to our homeschooling community.
