Membership is restricted to local residents so please indicate your location by subdivision (or landmark) when requesting membership.

The primary focus of this group is as a social and educational outlet for parents and children. We plan weekly get-togethers and field trips.

Our goal is to provide a safe, friendly environment for our children to socialize and develop friendships. Since there is no group "leader" everyone is welcome, and encouraged, to plan activities and provide input into group direction.

Our families have children ranging in age from infant through (Teens! Teens! Teens! We have teens and we're looking for more!) high school. We are a group comprised of a variety of families with many learning styles. Our views on education are as varied as the ages of our children; from unschoolers to those using home-based Charter schools.

Our group has an open membership policy; however, we request that you attend a group activity before being added to the Yahoo groups list. For more information, please click on the “Join this Group” button. We’ll send you a list of our upcoming activities and a contact person for questions you may have. Thanks for your interest!

Free membership for all members of Alamosa, Rio Grande, Conejos, Costilla, Saguache, and Mineral counties.

We are a support group for those Unschooling, beginning to Unschool, or interested in the philosophy, in Boulder and Surrounding areas. Unschooling is a child-led, self-directed process of learning, and LIFE is our classroom.

This list is not for currriculum discussion, or cohersed learning. These things do not make up Unschooling, and are not a part of what we do.

This list also does NOT include talks of religion of any kind. We all are from different backgrounds, and beliefs, so please be mindful and respectful of this. Religious and political talk need to be taken off list amongst each other.

All ages welcome! Toddlers to teens, and kids at heart. Friendships are important... lets get together and create a wonderful community of families, not only for our kids, but for ourselves as well. If we are what you are looking for, please join us.

*****Please be patient when waiting for approval to join the group, I only get a chance to do them once or twice a week. We're busy living life! You will receive a list of questions to answer before being approved to join, if for some reason yahoo doesn't send the list of questions please send another request to join and put that in the comments section. Thanks!

Boulder, Niwot, Lafayette, Longmont, Lyons, Nederland, Jamestown, Ward, Erie, and anywhere else you are willing to travel from.

We welcome anyone interested in the classical approach to education (emphasizing literature, particularly the classics; reading, writing, narration and Latin or Greek). Afterschoolers are welcome to join us. All faiths are welcome.

We meet once a month for an evening coffee or meal, without our children. Field trips and other family activities are planned as inspiration dictates. We stay in touch and provide ongoing support via e-mail

We want this site to be fun, informative, and supportive for homeschooling parents. You are welcome to post comments, prayer requests, ideas, Christian Worldview information, events, field trips,website info & links, Christian Business information and any other information that you believe would benefit the Christian homeschooler.

Open and honest discussion is welcome on any topic, as long as it is done in a respectful way. We don't always have to agree with each other in discussion, but know that the purpose of discussion is draw us nearer to God and to discover the truths set forth in His Holy Word, the Bible.

We pray this site will be a blessing to all that use it and a tool to promote Christian homeschooling.

We are a wonderful eclectic mix of homeschoolers that support the various choices we have in teaching and learning. There are those who use notebooking, lap books, Charlotte Mason, libraries, journals...the list is endless. Everything and anything is a learning experience. School doesn't start at 9 and end at 3. From the time our kids are awake to when they are asleep, they are learning and thriving. If this sounds like you and your family we would love to have you join us. Welcome!

If you have a small family business or ministry (located in Colorado) and you have a product or service that would be of value to homeschool families, you may also post your information here.

This is a family friendly group and the Items you post for sale and businesses represented must be suitable for all ages. No adult themes, occult or foul language allowed.

All transactions are between the seller and the buyer. Colorado Homeschool Book Swap is not responsible for these transactions. This is just a place for you to list your items you have to offer

NICHE is a "non-directed" organization. There are no appointed leaders. This group depends on the active involvement of its members. Any member, including a newbie, is encouraged to set up park days, play dates, field trips, informational classes, crafts or holiday/seasonal events. Being an active participant in the group will give you and your children lots of fun and socialization. NICHE activities and meetings will likely remain local to Boulder county and surrounding communities. Field trips may take place all over the Denver area. We currently have regular weekly park days, a co-op, hiking club, chess club, a monthly book club and game day plus two monthly mom nights out in Lafayette and Longmont.

Come and visit with us. We are a mix of long time homeschoolers (HSers), new HSers, and those who are just thinking about HSing, or planning for the future. We are here to share ideas, help and knowledge.

This list is not meant to compete or take away from the other homeschool groups in Colorado Springs. In fact we encourage those on this list to also join SHSSG@yahoogroups.com (Secular Homeschool Support Group) and/or Colorado Springs Homeschool Support Group, and/or Colorado Springs Homeschoolers Co-op, so you can be up to date on all the great homeschool happenings in Colorado Springs.

The links to join these groups are

• http://groups.yahoo.com/group/CSHSC/.

This list is just meant to give those who unschool a place to talk and enjoy one another. Happy Unschooling!

• a venue for homeschooling parents to support and assist one another with the monumental responsibility of educating their own.
• a social setting in which participating children are presented the opportunity to experience group learning with a fairly constant set of children, allowing them to learn about friendship, conflict resolution and mutual respect.
• the opportunity for students to learn and interact with teachers besides their own parents, allowing parents to share their specialized interests and experiences in subject matter to which students might not otherwise have access.

We plan regular get togethers, field trips, co-op-style classes, stitch-n-bitch (monthly moms' night out), celebrations of birthdays, holidays and a weekly park day. Our members should be active and participatory in real life, not just online (participation required). We want to get to know each other and act as true support in each other's lives, like bringing meals over to sick friends & babysitting each others’ kids.

We're happy to welcome new members, however we request that you already know a member or attend a group activity before your membership will be approved. For more info, please click "Join this Group" & we'll send you a list of upcoming open activities & a contact person for questions you may have. We look forward to meeting you!

This is a happy, welcoming place filled with warm & friendly local folks. If that describes you, please join us!

Blessed Be, TC Cooke (a Unitarian/Pagan Homeschooling mother of two in Wheat Ridge)

DNHC VISION STATEMENT
DNHC is a community of home-educating families in north and west Denver and the surrounding neighborhoods. Our members practice a variety of learning/teaching styles. We are not religiously oriented. We do not discriminate against anyone, and we have no particular ideological focus. DNHC members seek creativity, diversity, authenticity and fun in the homeschooling lifestyle for ourselves and our children.

As a community group, our primary intent is that everyone contribute to lend their time and talents to the rest of the group by creating and attending events. We envision a high level of involvement so that there are many options for members.

Because DNHC is a member directed community group, each member family has the right to initiate, discuss and vote upon the group's business and administration. Volunteer positions are rotated in order that responsibility for running the group is shared among members.

We ask that this list not be used to advertise products or services. http://groups.yahoo.com/group/CHSBE/ is a Colorado homeschool list that welcomes advertisers.

*If you found us because you were looking for groups in Aurora, Colorado, please, visit our sister group ACE - Aurora, Colorado, Eclectic Homeschoolers at: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/ACE-Homeschoolers/

For more information, visit http://www.frontrangeeducators.com/.

This group has many functions:

• To keep us all up to date on legal issues
• To give us a forum to discuss problems/issues within our groups
• To help us share resources, whether it be field trip ideas, experiences, methods of group leadership, etc
• To help us make connections with each other, and know what other groups are doing
• To create a place where we can share the frustrations and joys of being a home education support group leader with someone's who has walked in our shoes!

Bearing in mind that home educators come from all walks of life, and homeschool for all different reasons, we need to treat each other in a respectful fashion. THAT DOESN'T MEAN WE CAN'T TACKLE THE TOUGH SUBJECTS, just please keep the flaming out of it. Also, please do not solicit to this group or its members, under any circumstances. No off-topic postings, such as virus warnings, email jokes, etc will be tolerated.

For more information, visit http://www.ncfca.org/.

You are free to discuss anything relating to homeschooling, share recipes, seek help, and sell your curriculum or personal items.

Although this is a Christ-centered group, we do not turn away other homeschool families based on their religious beliefs. Please be respectful of members' religious or political beliefs.

In the past, our events include field trips, Mom's meetings, swimming lessons, gym time, and crafts. We are going to start planning more events so that moms and kids can socialize and build friendships.

You can also find us on Facebook: Peterson AFB Homeschoolers Facebook Page

Although most of our members are too far apart to make field trips possible, I have created a Colorado Springs based Spiral Academy© Co-op to facilitate projects and activities to benefit the children. All members are welcome to attend our activities.

The calendar is the main focus of this site. Our goal is to have a place where people in the four corners area can find other homeschoolers and unschoolers and invite others to their activities, thus creating a larger community for social interaction and education.

The purposes of this group are to bring together and provide support for families interested in unschooling/freelearning in the Fort Collins and surrounding area. It is intended as an unschooling/freelearning haven to remind families that learning happens all the time and empower us to make choices that respect…

1. the rights, needs and aspirations of our children
2. and trust and assist our children on their journeys
3. the right of families to make informed and desirable lifestyle choices that enhance togetherness, lifelong love of learning and respect for others.

We discuss anything and everything as there is nothing off-topic in freelearning, get-togethers, activities, etc. Talking about curriculum and school and forced school work will be no fun and counterproductive to the richness that exists in the world.

Some of our activities include a science/art group, bookclub, park days and field trips.

This is also a place for people to talk about homeschooling and to ask questions and share information about homeschooling too. Our members use all different styles of home school including Calvert, unschooling, Well Trained Mind, Classical and Eclectic. So come on in and join us and see what we are all about.
