Northern Virginia Homeschool Conference

This regional event will provide valuable resources and information for Northern Virginia families who are seeking better options to educate their children. Local experts will lead interactive workshops on topics such as Getting Started in Homeschooling, Math is Awesome, Reading and Writing, and Special Needs Homeschooling. The conference will also feature a Teen Panel who will share their firsthand experience and insights about homeschooling, and vendor tables will offer free books and resources. “People choose to homeschool for many reasons, and the benefits for children and their parents can be truly remarkable,” said IndED President Butch Porter. “The Northern Virginia Homeschool Conference will provide a great forum for parents, regional experts and students to talk about creating a fun, interactive environment for independent education,” said IndED President, Butch Porter.
