I'm sure you've heard the remarks over and over again:
"So many homeschool kids don't know how to socialize!"
What many do not know is that many homeschoolers are actually more equipped to socialize because they have more frequent and focused connection and communication with peers and adults.
They also have a secret weapon: Homeschool Co-ops!
Homeschool co-ops are a wonderful support for many homeschooling families. Co-ops are
there for families to supplement home education or just make connections with likeminded
families. Some co-ops require parents to volunteer while others do not, some are curriculum
based and others a strictly for social events. Homeschoolers can easily find the right fit for their
family by perusing the websites for a co-ops values, curriculum, and expectations or making a
co-op of their own. Listed below are several co-ops around the metro area.
