No April Support Meeting

 

We've got a busy month ahead of us with co-op, our talent show/graduation, field day, and picnic. We will not be having a support meeting this month. Stay on the lookout for our Early Bird Registration for the school year 2021-2022. Happy April everyone! Please direct all questions to theahslteachers@gmail.com

 Happy Spring everyone! It is THAT time of the year in which we homeschoolers start thinking about what we will be doing for school next school year. You know what that means. We are all in a focused, intense search for the “perfect” curriculum. Our topic will be “Curriculum” and our featured guests are our AHSL members. Please plan to come to our Curriculum Show and Tell Meeting on March 9 at 6:00 p.m. for some fun, lots of information, and the sharing of your favorite curriculum.

How will this work? We encourage you to bring your favorite curriculum that you used this year and plan to share briefly with the group why you liked it (or didn’t like it) for your family. What made you choose it? Did it work for all your children? (Why or why not?) Will you use it again? (Why or why not?) What do you wish was different about it? Did you use it as written? Is there anything else you would like to tell us about the curriculum?

If you are new to homeschooling, this is a great meeting to attend.  You will learn all about different curricula and which one may fit your child best.  Hear it straight from those that have used it.

A few notes to remember: This meeting is open to the public.  Children need to be with you or in the child-care room. If you do plan to leave your children with the child-care crew, please consider leaving a donation in the box. (We suggest $1 per child.)

 Come one, come all! Our February support meeting is on February 9, and it is all about TESTING! We will discuss the many options we have for annual testing (which is required by the state of North Carolina), how to acquire the necessary tests, and try to ease your unease about testing.

Please come if you have questions about the test, and we will try to help you. Please come if you are a veteran of testing to help answer questions. Please come if you just want some adult interaction. This is always an informative – and fun – meeting.

A few notes to remember: This meeting is open to the public. If you are interested in learning about homeschooling, please join us! Children need to be with you or in the child-care room.

Happy New Year!

We, the coordination team, hope you had a blessed Christmas and are looking forward to an amazing new year! Our next support group meeting is on January 12 from 6 to 8 pm at Calvary Chapel. This is going to be a fun evening that you won’t want to miss. Our topic will be "New Year: Bang or Fizzle?" We will be sharing with one another such topics as: “What do you want to change about your homeschool?” And “What are your kids’ favorites?” Or “What is the best homeschool tip you have received?” Or, perhaps you have a tip for re-igniting enthusiasm for learning when the routine if just feeling “blah!” Kim Holder even has some fun games (with prizes) for us to play!

A few notes to remember: This meeting is open to the public. Children need to be with you or in the child-care room. If you do plan to leave your children with the child-care crew, please consider leaving a donation in the box. (We suggest $1 per child.)
