Homeschooling is actually fairly common here. We have many groups, statewide as well as local, for families that are considering home schooling their children. Homeschoolers have some specific rules they have to follow in Oregon and you can read the rules at the Oregon Department of Education site. There is also excellent information at the Oregon Home Educators Network site as well.
Oregon Home is a Yahoo! Group.
SHINE This is the Salem Homeschool Independent Network of Educators
SASH is the Salem Area Support for Homeschoolers
ORChristianHS is a Christian homeschooling group
LDS-OHEA is for Latter Day Saints.
Oregon Connections Academy- This is a home school/virtual public school hybrid program.
Would it be possible to add our HS group to your list? Thanks for your consideration.
“Trivium Cooperative Academy (TCA) is a Christian homeschool co-op serving families in the greater Salem Oregon area. High quality academic classes and electives for Elementary, Jr. High and High School students.”
