The P.A.HS follows the S.E.A.R.C.H motto of: We exist as a framework for networking, communicating and supporting each other. We are a very diverse group of people. We have homeschoolers of all shapes and sizes -- from religious to nonreligious, unschoolers to curriculum based, and everything in between. We do not endorse any one resource, method, curriculum, philosophy or religion over another.

I recommend signing up for "special notices only" under e-mail options when you join so you can get the up coming schedule. Please sign up for "daily digest" when you take a class, so you can receive homework updates.
