Good Citizenship

Some things in homeschool are better caught than taught.  And somethings need to taught and modeled.  One of those things i Good Citizenship, which we are required according to Leeper to teach our children.  There have been many opportunities to meet our elected officials and candidates from every level of government this year.  There have also been many opportunities to help with get out the vote campaigns, and other ways to help the candidates of our choosing.  BUT the most important thing that we need to do is VOTE.  Early voting starts on October 20, 2008 and continues until October 31st. 

For those of you wondering who to vote for, we have resources on our voting page.  You can agree or disagree with the choices, but if you need resources, they are on the voting page for you.

List of the Month
Texas Home Educators

 Texas Home Educators is a list to serve the Home Educators of Texas in discussions of homeschool styles, philosophy, books, curriculum, events, and laws in a Christian atmosphere. As we homeschool our children, or unschool our children, this is the place to discuss and share our triumphs, our questions, and our bumps. Although discussions will sometimes stray from the direct purpose of home schooling, it usually does not stray from our children's interests. TexHmEd has been serving the community since August 21, 1998 and is now the largest statewide homeschool list.

Howdy! We hope you will find this website beneficial to your search for information about homeschooling in general and homeschooling in Texas in particular.  Texas Home Educators are friendly, diverse and independent, just like all Texians.

There are almost 400,000 children homeschooling in Texas, and as you learn about the community, you will find they are bright children pursuing their individual interests and their talents while finding their individual learning styles through home education.

If you don't find your question answered on this website, you can always join the online discussion groups where hundreds of homeschoolers online can answer your question.
