Getting Started Home Schooling

A Free Workshop
More and more families are choosing to home school because of seeing the benefits others have experienced—academic excellence, positive socialization, development of strong character, family unity, and more. Why settle for a one-size-fits-all education when you can provide an education that specifically targets your child’s learning style, aptitudes, and interests? Come learn how to begin on this journey. "What are the advantages of home schooling? How do I do this legally, choose curriculum, document progress..?" All these questions and more will be addressed at our "Getting Started" workshops. The dates of the workshops are listed below.
They are from 7:00 to 8:30 p.m. at the SCAIHS office and are free and open to all!
Register by calling (803) 454-0427 or emailing SCAIHS@scaihs.org
