Thanks!
Oh and for those who wonder about Prom and Graduation, I was public school educated and didn’t attend either of mine. However, homeschoolers are very resourseful. My children will have the opportunity to attend both. The joys of being near Selfridge ANG base means that homeschooling families do these things ourselves. AND the Cedar Point trip follows.
We have a group for 9 to 13 year old girls called a Tweens Group. We get together at a family’s house to do things like luaus, fiestas and candy making. For the summer, the girls are allowed to invite their schooled friends. Last week we had an event and one girl brought an 11 year old friend who is terribly abused at school. She is a sweet girl who doesn’t fight back so she is a target. She went home and cried because she found some “nice kids” to hang with. This little girl has talked suicide.
Oh yeah, socialization is everything.
One of the homeschool support groups we belong to put together their own prom.
NYS L.E.A.H. also has a graduation for homeschoolers every year at their annual convention.
