Just a reminder -- the 9th nonsectarian InHome (formerly HOUSE)
Homeschool Conference will kick off one week from tomorrow, March 10

"This is always my yearly shot in the arm to help me know I'm doing
the right thing and am still on track."
-- Past conference attendee

The conference will include over 150 children's and 70 adult
workshops. Featured speakers this year will be Patrick Farenga
(Growing Without Schooling), Penny Gardner (Charlotte Mason Study
Guide), and Robin Schneider (Teaching Science Skills at Home without

The Vendors Hall (over 50 Vendors), as always, is open to the
