CHEC Introduction to Homeschooling Seminar

Your Homeschool Journey Starts Now!

Have you been thinking about starting homeschooling for months? 

Is there something about your child's current school that has you searching for another option? Or do you simply want greater freedom to disciple your children and shape their education around your family's convictions? 

Are all the questions keeping you feeling stuck at “someday” instead of saying “let’s start!”?

You don't have to figure out homeschooling on your own. 

Spend one morning with us and leave with practical answers to your questions and a roadmap for moving forward.

At CHEC’s Introduction to Homeschooling Seminar, experienced homeschool parents will walk you through what you need to know to get started, so you can stop wondering, “Can we really do this?” 

Instead, you’ll be telling yourself, “We know our next step!”

When you're just beginning, homeschooling can feel overwhelming, but it doesn’t need to be! And after this practical seminar, you'll walk away knowing answers to all these questions and more:

• “What are my legal options for homeschooling in Colorado?”

•  “What is the difference between filing a Notice of Intent (NOI) and enrolling in an independent school?”

•  “How do I choose the right curriculum for my kids from the many options available?”

•  “What about socialization and other extracurricular activities?”

•  “Where can I connect with other like-minded families?”

•  “How does homeschooling work day-to-day?”  You’ll receive practical guidance on schedules, records, assessments, and the other nuts and bolts of home education!

•  “Is there more to homeschooling than just doing school at home?”  Spoiler Alert!! You’ll learn how homeschooling gives you flexibility, freedom, and opportunities you didn’t know existed to go beyond simply educating your children's minds, but intentionally discipling their hearts!
