The purpose of the group is to provide social and educational opportunities for a variety of ages since homeschooling involves the entire family. Our on-line goal is to provide an open forum to discuss any subject pertinent to homeschooling with tolerance, dignity and respect. Our off-line goal is to gather and build a community that will support us throughout our homeschooling experience.

It is our hope that everyone will contribute and host activities to make this group self-sufficient. Our calendar reflects the diversity of our group. Our members typically organize events such as museum trips, theater trips, playdates, seasonal gatherings, park days, family picnics, classes, etc.

Mission Statement: SHARE seeks to support all homeschooling families, those just beginning, as well as those who have been homeschooling for many years. We are not devoted to any specific educational approach, nor do we endorse any political platform, religious belief, or philosophical ideal. Recognizing that the decision to homeschool is made after much thought and consideration, and that all parents make the decision because they believe it to be in the best interests of their children, we leave the "whys" up to the individual families. We simply strive always to back up the decision to homeschool with support and encouragement, regardless of personal lifestyle, or educational choices. We welcome diversity, and open minds.

Participation in this e-mail loop is by membership to SHARE. Memebership is perged annually in late August/September. Guidelines for our group are posted in the files section of links. We welcome any and all in new members and returning members and appreciate you being a part of this wonderful group!

This is also a place for support and encouragment through open questions and discussions of curriculums, homeschool issues, etc. within a safe, secure environment.

A few reminders ... this group is for Homeschool encouragement, support, and resource information and will be moderated as such. We are a Christian group, so 'Thank You' in advance for keeping all email language and content appropriate for our families.

Our activities are every Tuesday normally but will sometimes change days. You can find us enjoying park days, parties, field trips and we have also had educational classes to participate in. I am always looking for new ideas to plan. If there is something you would like to do or see happen in the group, please speak up and email Jill to ask if it is possible.

Triad members love to have new families join and to meet them. We like to have an active group and to get to know the families so we do expect you to come to something every 6 months. This is also for the protection of our members that we expect to meet you within 6 months of you joining us.

If you are looking for general information on homeschooling, please go to Piedmont Homeschoolers.

Our focus is homeschooling, and we welcome homeschoolers of all shapes and sizes, varied spiritual backgrounds, traditional and nontraditional families, unschoolers to school-at-home families, and everything in between. We respect these differences and encourage each member to follow the Unifour Home Learning that is comfortable for their family.

We are a colorful patchwork of opinions, thoughts, beliefs, values, and styles, and we can all work together without compromising our own personal principles, beliefs, and commitments. No statement of faith or philosophy is required of people wishing to become members of Unifour Home Learning. Membership is moderated to maintain privacy, but the list is unmoderated for posting. You are responsible for your own words, and 'be respectful' is the only rule. Thank you for helping maintain "A Safe Place to Ask. Share. Plan. Enjoy."
