www.communityhomeschoolcenter. org
*What is ASK ME? It’s any parent or teen who WANTS to help. If you have five years or more of consecutive ‘official’ homeschooling (We love you, but birth to five doesn’t ‘count’ - though it SHOULD!) you qualify to wear an ASK ME lanyard. This will give newbie moms a place to ask questions! ASK ME Teens - they are the ones who will reply to this email and get signed up for the teen opportunities below.
All books and curricula will be organized by subject, thus, each seller does NOT have to man your own table.
