For many homeschooling parents, the beginning of the primary/elementary years is when they feel like they’ve truly begun to homeschool. Now we are thinking about all the neighbourhood children walking to the school on the corner or hopping on to the bus for the morning ride. The subject matter is not difficult to teach, but the insecurity surrounding the decision, and the criticism of well-meaning onlookers, can be overwhelming.

No matter how confident you are feeling about jumping into the elementary years, HSLDA is here to help you. From giving you information about mandatory school ages in your province, to supplying the appropriate notification documents, to directing you to some of the best curriculum providers in the country, HSLDA ensures that its members have what they need to homeschool with confidence.

Let us help you to begin well! Homeschooling is a long and wonderful journey and HSLDA counts it a privilege to walk this road with you.

Hear from the HSLDA Canada President, Paul Faris, on his vision for choosing homeschooling, and let it be an encouragement to you as you teach the primary/elementary years.
