- From Kindergarten To College: A Concise Guide to Homeschooling, Preparing for College, and Finding Scholarships Along the Way... by Deb Edson
I am very excited about this book. I have known Deb for many years and have always been impressed with her depth of knowledge. She has been very active in the homeschool movement upstate. She homeschooled her own children successfully getting them to college-- helping them secure many scholarships along the way. Please read the information about her, her children, and this wonderful resource she has prepared to help other homeschoolers accomplish for their own children what she has been able to do.

- Etiquette program for homeschooler:
Every once in a while, a program comes along that not only teaches our children academically, but also prepares them socially and personally for the future. As we are all aware, we are living in a fast paced and often rude world. Today, manners are often not used...or even taught! This is a scary thought, if we understand the famous quote that says, "the manners of today will be the morals of tomorrow." The Charleston School of Protocol and Etiquette is presenting "Your Manners Matter" homeschool curriculum for the 2007-2008 school year.
Please see the press release. Permission has been given to distribute this information to members of your email loops and groups.

- Video Based Homeschool Community:
Chalkcast, Inc. is a brand new company started by three homeschool families hoping to make a huge difference in the use of the internet by fellow homeschoolers. This site is an exciting, entertaining, ingenious, and interactive way to get a huge variety of information out there to eveyone- literally! This is a faith-oriented company that believes "our children and students, and we as teachers, should have access to the best resources possible. If society can come up with ways to view news, sports, games, twaddle, and even immoral garbage on webcasts and podcasts, why can't we proliferate programming that uplifts, informs, and teaches us quality things we need in life?" And with a team of 3 homeschool families with a total of more than 50 years of schooling experience, and 25 years of video experience, and a very short time on the web.... they hope to get you- homeschool moms, dads, and students- participating and submitting video and audio to build an interactive, ever-growing community. Finally, a website worthy of video content solely for homeschoolers, by homeschoolers!!!!
Please check them out on the web at
And Remember... To make this site grow, they need our suggestions, video, audio, graphics submissions. They are just in the infant start up phase. Get involved and watch them grow! You will soon see me there!
I am excited about this one!
