Arizona Jewish Homeschoolers is a discussion forum and information exchange for homeschooling and unschooling Jewish educators/parents (or those just thinking about it), living in Arizona. It should serve as a means to discuss issues unique to the Arizona Jewish homeschool environment, and a means by which friendships may be formed, events will be planned, and joint homeschool activities may be held. Most of us are in the Greater Phoenix area, but we want to be as inclusive as possible.

Our purpose is to provide support, networking, and the exchange of ideas and experiences, as an online community for the Jewish homeschooler. We will discuss issues facing Jews who choose homeschool education, the potentials and difficulties of combining homeschooling with Judaism, and homeschooling to raise a Jewish child. We will share lessons, thoughts and ideas in integrating all levels of Judaism into homeschooling, ideas for celebrating holidays and festivals, information on traditional crafts, etc.

We will try to coordinate homeschool activities and events, sometimes themed around Jewish holidays. We may discuss Jewish observance, family life, and related outside interests.

All levels of Jewish observance are welcome, as are all levels of experience with homeschooling. This means that this is a (Jewish) pluralistic list where we welcome and will respect all points of view (except the one that insists there is only one correct way to be Jewish).

When you join us, you will be asked to write a few paragraphs introducing yourself to complete your subscription.
