Are you overwhelmed with the amount of homeschool information?
Home education comes with a great deal of freedom and endless possibilities. Sometimes, the biggest challenge is simply where to begin.
Start Strong New York, presented by Homeschool New York and Homeschool University, is a two-week crash course to help you cut through the confusion.
Available now, this unique 14-day online course is designed to help new homeschoolers take flight. It includes videos, articles, and panel discussions with veteran homeschoolers who will walk you step-by-step through all the facets of successfully homeschooling your kids. You will love all the practical help and guidance. We’ve also included hours of bonus content to help you dig deeper into individual topics.
We are here to empower you for the greatest job you’ll ever have: teaching your children at home! Perhaps you are only here for the rest of this year, or maybe you have decided that home education is the only education choice for your family. Either way, this course was designed to help you start the homeschool journey with confidence, being fully equipped to do the job well, no matter when you start or how long you choose to home educate.
Did you know that homeschool laws are different across the country?
Your state’s laws establish the rules and the guidelines for home education. Some states require annual testing for children, registration with the state, tracking attendance, or more. Some states have great freedom, while others place families under a great deal of burdensome regulations. As your state’s homeschool organization, we’re here to help.
