Fresno and Madera (FAM) Homeschoolers is a group of homeschooling families from Fresno, Madera, and surrounding counties in Central California. Our purpose is to offer support to local homeschoolers, and provide group activities and discussion. Our group is open to all homeschoolers, regardless of method or other affiliations.

In addition to encouraging discussions among local homeschoolers, this is also a place to post and find out about homeschooling activities in the Central Valley.

If you have an activity or event to share, please add it to the calendar and set a reminder email. To do so, simply visit the calendar here: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/fresnoandmaderahomeschoolers/cal and click "Add Event", then fill out the form thoroughly. MAKE SURE YOU CHOOSE AT LEAST ONE "REMINDER", NEAR THE BOTTOM OF THE FORM, OR ELSE THE NOTICES WON'T BE SENT!

For those of you that only want to receive activity notices, no chit chat, please edit your membership to "special announcement only" and you will only receive those announcements which come from the mods, marked as special announcement and the notices that come from the calendar. To do this, go here: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/fresnoandmaderahomeschoolers/join and under "Message Delivery", choose this option: Special notices - Receive only important email notices from the group moderator. And then make sure you click "Save Changes."

NOTE: This is a secular (nonreligious) group. Please keep all religion-related discussions to offlist. Thank you!
