Resources for Homeschool Families on Display

As teachers prepare to go back to school, homeschooling parents can do the same

As homeschooling parents consider their curriculum and lesson plan options for the coming year, they need look no further than Pikes Peak Library District.

On Friday, Aug. 16, PPLD will hold the annual Homeschool Resource Fair. The event will feature over 40 businesses, all of whom provide services for homeschooled children and their parents. The vendors include local school districts with concurrent enrollment or enrichment programs, local extracurricular organizations for everything from sports to music, tutoring resources, support groups, and more. There are no sales at the event. The sole focus is to allow homeschool families to gather information that will help them be successful on their educational journey.

PPLD supports homeschooling households throughout the year, too, through the Educational Resource Center based at East Library. Library locations throughout El Paso County offer programs, events, and resources for homeschool families looking for enriching educational experiences. More information on these services can be found at ppld.org/homeschool-hub.
