Since our recent move to Missouri, I thought I needed to add some Missouri Informational sites about homeschooling.

And for our friends in Arkansas check out www.arkansashomeschool.org/

No matter what state you live in, I recommend a membership to Home School Legal Defense Association.

It is a nonprofit advocacy organization established to defend and advance the constitutional right of parents to direct the education of their children and to protect family freedoms. Through annual memberships, HSLDA is tens of thousands of families united in service together, providing a strong voice when and where needed.  http://www.hslda.org

Also, If you have any questions, and want to talk on a more personal level, feel free to contact me
