Homeschooling Community

by on 10-27-2009 01:45 AM - last edited on 10-27-2009 01:55 AM
I'd like to see a section of the community devoted to homeschooling topics, related products and merchants. Homeschooling is increasing in popularity, so a section like this could generate a lot of interest. In addition, Upromise could be a very welcome and appreciated resource for homeschooling families who also hope to send their children to college someday.

Interesting.  I hadn't thought of that, mrsbandme.  Are there other home schoolers out there in Upromise land?  What do you think?

I think it's highly likely that there are, but the heaviest traffic on the message boards is on the Welcome page. I'll post an informal poll there & see if there's a response.

I home-schooled but didn't find out about upromise until after I graduated from college.
