Homeschooling is the fastest growing educational movement in the nation. Parents are turning to this alternative for a variety of reasons including to promote academic achievement, to ensure a wholesome moral and social environment, and to integrate religious or philosophical teachings into academic content.

 Homeschooling families create their own approaches to education, which may reach back to the time-honored practice of apprenticeship and stretch forward to high-tech approaches like CD-ROM and the Internet. This list of homeschooling links includes newsgroups, mailing lists, gopher sites, BBSs, FAQs, and FQAs (Frequently Questioned Answers). There are web pages of homeschooling organizations and people, and a 900 number hotline. Homeschooling publications include magazines and newsletters for parents, and publications by and for homeschooled kids. Find listings of homeschooling support groups and conferences by state, plus information on homeschooling law, charter schools, children\'s advocacy groups, and research on the effects of homeschooling. Various educational approaches are presented, including Christian homeschools, Montessori and Catholic programs, and others. Homeschooling families will find useful reading lists, online educational sites, and places to buy books, curricula, CDs and software.

There are also reviews of books, programs, and games. There is a connection where homeschooled teens can meet each other, or learn about occupations they are interested in pursuing. Those looking for general educational and parenting resources will find much of interest here too.
