First Homeschooling Meeting
[email protected]
Hi All:
Just wanted to let you know I went to my first homeschooling meeting with
about 7 women the other night at a bookstore in Tucson. They meet once a
month to have coffee and talk about stuff and it was wonderful... I didn't
get home till nearly 1am... The Sonoran Desert Homeschoolers (which is who
they are) encompasses from strict homeschooling to complete unschooling. It
was wonderful to hear how each different person did this thing and how it
worked for them.
Strange also, that once I've said I'm doing this I've had so many friends say
"Oh so and so homeschools, I'll have to give you her number". Also my
mother's helper that comes on Thursday afternoon's and is 14 told me her
mother is going to homeschool her as her grades are really bad (Alison, my
mother's helper, told me she hates school wants to be an actress and can't
see the point of learning things that are boring and not necessary)... I gave
her mother info about the Homeschooling organization here in Tucson.... It's
amazing how it just seems to mushroom.

WOW, good for you Dawn, I'm glad you found your niche' in your new h-s
support group .... isn't it funny how people seem to come out of the
woodwork once you've connected w/ the h-s community ... I always tell
people when we started h-s'ing we were the ONLY h-s fm we'd ever met and now
we literally know 100s of h-s fms ...
next Fri, our *new* h-s group is having a planning meeting and I'm a little
apprehensive, too ... maybe we'll *gel* the way your group did <SMILES> ...
but goodness, I *HOPE* we don't work until 1am??? lol ...
