SMILe, we're here!

We are a Santa Maria based, inclusive, secular homeschool group tolerant of diverse world views.

Our member base is an eclectic group of natural learners from Montessori, Waldorf, Classical and many other approaches. We welcome open-minded homeschoolers, home-learners and unschoolers in the Santa Maria area.

We are open and secular. For our purposes this means people participate equally whatever their religious views, their schooling style, or the curriculum or charter school they use, and we love to welcome new friends.

SMILe yahoo-group membership and archives are by invitation. Please scroll down for how to introduce yourself.
If you are homeschooling nearby, you should first browse the links to familiarize yourself with other local groups. This will help you determine what sort of group will suit your needs. The links button at left will take you there.

If you like what you see you are welcome to participate in our group. For admission, please email the listowner and INTRODUCE yourself, including your phone number and ages of your children, and check your inbox/junkmail folder for replies. We'll look forward to welcoming you!
