Madison HEART

HEART is a Madison, Wisconsin area inclusive homeschool support group (Homeschoolers Exploring Activities and Resources Together).

HEART seeks to foster an inclusive homeschooling support group to enhance our members' homeschooling experiences. We value all homeschoolers regardless of race, color, national origin, sex, disability, religion, creed, sexual orientation, gender identity, or socioeconomic status. As a group, we embrace this diversity and the opportunities for learning that it provides. We encourage, nurture, affirm, and celebrate family-centered learning in a welcoming and supportive community.

Members arrange activities to provide opportunities for our children to socialize, learn from others in the group, and further their interests. We also provide opportunities for members to ask questions and voice concerns regarding homeschooling.

We all choose what best fits our families. You are always free to offer an activity, trip, club, party or event to the group. Don't feel shy! Not everyone wants to do every thing. Some folks want to try everything! Offer what excites you and your family--park days, meet-ups at museums, origami, playing in the mud, book clubs, cooking together, Minecraft, chess, digging a big hole, building a garage, laboratory science, writing a novel, dyeing silk--you never know who you will meet!

It is requested that people leave religion and politics out of HEART forums and gatherings because we are here primarily because we choose to be personally responsible for our children's educations.
