    SBHA (St. Benedict's Homeschool Association) - We are Catholic Homeschooling families in Kentucky. The member families of the St. Benedict Homeschool Association share their commitment to providing the highest quality education for our children.

    Our first goal is to help our members build holy lives through prayer with and for our fellow members and through participation in the sacraments, traditions, and teaching magisterium of the Roman Catholic Church.

    Our second goal is to provide fellowship and encouragement, and our third goal is to share knowledge and resources among our members.

    Our final goal is to work to continue the freedom of parents to homeschool. Benefits of membership in SBHA include:

    • A shared list of members to encourage mutual support and fellowship
    • Faith-building and faith-sharing activities
    • Occasional meetings for sharing challenges and information
    • Coordinated field trips
    • Curriculum, information, and resource sharing
    • Educational issues and techniques discussions

    Educating your children at home is a great adventure, but it can be intimidating to “go it alone.” Look to SBHA to help you get started and to give you encouragement and support your need to do what’s best for your family.

    We Welcome You

    Our member families believe that Jesus Christ is the Word of God made flesh…“through whom all things were made.” We believe that Jesus Christ, therefore, is the originator and revealer of all knowledge. So, while we are happy to share information which could be helpful to any homeschooling parent, our approach is most definitely Christ-centered. As Roman Catholics, we adhere to the teaching Magisterium of the Roman Catholic Church and pledge obedience to the successor of St. Peter, Our Holy Father Pope Benedict XVI.
