This is an email loop for the Rolla Secular Homeschool group in Missouri. The primary definition of SECULAR is that which is not religiously affiliated or those who are not choosing to homeschool based on religious beliefs (regardless of what their religious beliefs are). We are an inclusive group and all are welcome!

We have a diverse group including different religious views, different races, different homeschooling styles, and different family dynamics. All of these are not only accepted, but embraced. The only thing we do not tolerate is intolerance.

The children range from infants to teens and we do a variety of group activities, including a weekly playgroup on Thursday's, field trips, and seasonal parties.

This email list is intended for scheduling playgroups, parties, field trips, and private discussion among our families. It is NOT a general homeschooling forum and is meant for active participants only. We ask that you live in the area and plan to attend some of our activities at some point.

Our primary purpose for meeting is to provide social and educational activities for our children. Our group's activities occasionally center around nature/the environment and seasonal cycles of learning.

We also started the Rolla Area Homeschool Co-op, which offera a variety of classes, once a week, to homeschoolers. The site for more information about the RAH_Co-op:
