We strive to maintain a friendly, cozy support group atmosphere. SHH is a small town cyber neighborhood of Catholic homeschooling families, established in January 2003. Our goal is to create a support group atmosphere where everyone knows your name. We believe that homeschooling needs can be best met in a small group atmosphere. This is why we maintain a 30 family group cap, which normally yields 150 students. This way, every group member is able it participate in every group event at any time.

Please post any appropriate events that would be of interest to our group. Members only, please. The moderator reserves the right to restrict the membership of the list. Questions - email: pattiekelleyhuff@yahoo.com.

This group is a place where parents can connect with other homeschooling families in our area. This is a place where we can ask questions, compare notes, share resources, and generally "socialize" with other homeschool parents. Please post about homeschool-related events you know of in our community or within driving distance.

Members are encouraged to ask each other about different homeschooling approaches, curriculum, and suggestions for materials with or without a religious focus. If you are, for example, looking for secular resources, please say so when you ask for suggestions. If you are, for example, recommending a Christian-focused resource, please state that it is such when you list it.

Our homeschool community is diverse - but we are tied by our common belief that homeschooling is a viable educational option, a worthwhile endeavor, and a wonderful opportunity for families to learn and grow together. Please be respectful of all beliefs, philosophies, and personal points of view of other members.

To make life easier on the moderators: This is an all-inclusive group and we welcome anything and everything homeschooling related--with the exception of selling items or advertising (without moderator approval--this is not a classifieds group) and we are supportive to all homeschooling families, regardless of non/religious preference, race, color, or national/ethnic origin, teaching style. Our goal is to provide a friendly, positive and open support group. We believe that an open, non-judgemental and positive attitude is one of the most important things we can provide to our families. We need to show respect for everyone's opinions even if they may differ from our own. Translation: There are many forums available for home education: type, style, philosophy, Christian, or secular--this email group is a good place to get started. Please use it as a small part of your support base--branch out to other resources as you find them and let everyone know what you learn along the way! Questions: contact moderators.

This is a support group for parents who want to share the joys and challenges of homeschooling gifted children. No matter what homeschool approach you favor, this is a place where you can ask questions, seek advice, share resources, and connect with other gifted families who share similar situations.

Because neither our state gifted organization nor our state homeschool organizations provide a forum for TAG homeschoolers, it is hoped that this group can function as the beginnings of a cohesive Wisconsin TAG homeschooling community, and also as a clearinghouse for information on local, state and regional TAG homeschooling events and resources.

We are a very diverse group, and, as such, we encourage an atmosphere of tolerance and respect for the opinions and beliefs of all our members.

Located along the St. Croix River in Wisconsin and Minnesota, Wild River Home Educators provides parents the opportunity to exchange ideas about curriculum, family dynamics and teaching while children make friends, enjoy field trips and learn together. Currently, member children range in age from 18 months to 12 years old. Our members come from several surrounding communities, such as Osceola, St. Croix Falls, Amery, Somerset, Hugo, and Shafer.

Social opportunities for both children and parents are offered on the second and fourth Fridays of every month. We meet at Hope Evangelical Free Church (located in Osceola, Wisconsin) in the winter and at local parks during the warmer months. We also gather for monthly field trips, regular parent outings, resource sharing and service projects.

We welcome anyone new to homeschooling, considering homeschooling, or just looking for homeschooling friends to contact us with questions. We ask anyone considering joining Wild River Home Educators to attend two public activities before joining the group.
