HomeSchooling is what we Sanford's feel called to do for our girls. When our oldest was months old, we had some homeschooling friends that poured into us encouragement and support. They were a great example and model of what we would like our family to be. Those same friends started doing Classical Conversations with their children a couple years later. One year after that our oldest was old enough to start CC too. Now we will have two children in CC and I will be a tutor for the new campus we will be apart of in the fall.
You can find a CC community near you.
