Winter Workshops (2011) - It's almost the end of the year and for many that means withdrawing from public school. Many families are deciding to not return to school after the Christmas break. There are a variety of reasons and each one is important to that family. Our goal is to help those who are looking for the next step after the New Year begins.

SETHSA is once again partnering with our local homeschool stores. On January 15th, the stores will be hosting workshops and offering help for new homeschoolers. Some will have workshops, discounts, and the opportunity for you to counsel with their staff. This is also a great time to invite any friends or family who might be withdrawing their child from the public school system over the Christmas break. Maybe you find yourself in the middle of the year and you're not happy with some of your curriculum; this is an excellent opportunity for you, as well. This is your chance to discover a new world of homeschooling! Whatever your need is, January 15th will be a great time to make a visit to one of our local homeschool stores.

Please keep this event in mind for someone you know who is considering homeschooling in the New Year. You may run across someone in your church, neighborhood, or even your very own family. You can give them our web address www.sethsa.org for all the details.
