This list exists to allow Oregon homeschoolers to discuss homeschooling and topics of interest to homeschoolers. This can and will encompass a wide variety of topics, some of which will interest individual members more than others. This list may also serve as a vehicle for you to organize or participate in homeschooling clubs, playgroups, tours, lectures, and other special events. ORSig is a high volume list but the diligent use of accurate subject lines allows for confident use of the delete key. Although many subscribers are from the Portland metro area, the list is for ALL Oregon homeschoolers.

This is a non-commercial list--if you have a product or service you think may be of value to the homeschooling community, a *brief*, one-time announcement may be appropriate but lengthy blatant advertisements are not. If in doubt, please contact the moderators before posting. Orsig members are welcome to submit their contact information to the database of homeschoolers' home businesses.

We strongly encourage you to share your learning experiences, and to ask a lot of questions. ORSig members determine the topics of conversation so, if there's something you want to discuss, please speak up.


ORSIG is whatever YOU make of it. Lurking is permitted, but lively participation is highly encouraged. Choose the level of involvement which best fits your personal needs and preferences.

So, wherever you are, please do join in. Let's learn from one another.
