Welcome to H.O.M.E.

 
     
 

Established in 1986, Home Oriented Meaningful Education (H.O.M.E.) is a Christian support group of over 200 homeschooling families living in the North King and South Snohomish county area of Washington State. While the activities and publications of this group are inherently Christian in nature, everyone, regardless of belief or creed, is welcome to attend parent meetings and apply for membership. H.O.M.E. is a Washington State nonprofit corporation.

 
     
     
 

Congratulations   Elizabeth Zhang!

On March 30th, our very own 2008 HOME Spelling Bee champion, Elizabeth Zhang, beat 52 other spellers from around King and Snohomish Counties to win the Seattle PI Regional Spelling Bee. She will be traveling to Washington DC at the end of May to represent the Seattle area in the Scripps National Spelling Bee!

The broadcast of the Regional Spelling Bee will be on Washington's public affairs network TVW (Comcast channel 23) at 7 p.m. this Wednesday, April 2.  It will also be shown at 3:00 a.m. and 11:00 a.m. on Thursday.

The National Bee is a 2-day event held on May 29 and 30.  Portions will be nationally televised, so check back for details to be posted when we get them.

  Go Elizabeth!

 Next Parent Meeting

Upcoming Events

Tuesday, May 13
College Prep for the Homeschooler
Lee Binz

Lee will share the secrets of her family’s success and prepare you to prepare your children for College entrance. She will speak on record keeping, SAT prep, the college admission process and much more.

Lee is an experienced homeschool mom who has been where you are and lived to tell about it! She has the knowledge you need to succeed in homeschooling high school and beyond! Lee independently homeschooled her two boys for eight years, from third grade through high school graduation. Both boys earned four year, full-tuition scholarships.

It would be appropriate for high school students to attend this seminar as well.

 Notice: Regretfully, childcare will not be available at this Parent Meeting.
