Exploring Families Used Curriculum Sale... August 1st
JUNE 2012
CHEE USED CURRICULUM FAIR... Tuesday, June 19th, 10am - 2pm. Once again, homeschoolers will enjoy a great opportunity to shop and purchase gently used homeschool resources from one another. For almost 20 years, I always look forward to a homeschool curriculum sale. In addition to the books, curriculum, and other resources, it does the homeschool soul good to connect with old friends and make a few new ones. See newsletter for location details.
