General Information
Want some feedback on the latest curriculum? Need some advice on how to homeschool several grades at one time? Looking for other homeschooling families to share and fellowship with? Then the CACHE support group meetings are for you! Every month CACHE sponsors a meeting whose purpose is to help and encourage homeschoolers whether you’ve been doing this for years or just getting started.
At these meetings you will find answers to your questions, information on what’s out there in the homeschool world, and fellowship with other moms & dads who understand the challenges your going through while affirming your educational choice.
These meetings are free & open to anyone interested in homeschooling.
CACHE member and homeschool mom Carrie Carpenter has graciously allowed us to use her place of business to hold our meetings. Her coffee shop will be open, so plan on enjoying your favorite coffee beverage while meeting with like-minded parents.

Speaker: Jim & Cindy McDermott (SALT Magazine)
Topic: Efficient Homeschooling - Our system for homeschooling multiple children with little time and money. At our peak we were homeschooling 7 children, had 3 too young to homeschool, and had another commuting to college. Unfortunately, we also had two parents working outside the home (not recommended) and we were producing a magazine. Had we brought the methods of the public or Christian school home we never would have made it. Had we homeschooled the way many people do, we never would have made it. “Efficient homeschooling” is about the adjustments we made that made homeschooling less time consuming, less expensive, and less frustrating for our children.Click Here for our homepage
