Many secular homeschoolers follow a Classical approach. It doesn’t mean what you think it means.


Yes it does learn to read cognitively.
It’s garbage
Ester Wells promotes that crap with moms4Liberty


Classical education started in Ancient Greece. It doesn’t mean Christian school (though many religious schools follow the format).

Perhaps you could do some research before posting like an uneducated moron.


Agree. We don’t subscribe to any religion. I homeschool using a classical education model- it’s the best.

Yeah, you would never want your kids to read the Great Books, learn Latin and vocabulary, etc. Run away!

If you're in Montgomery County, you can also try Peaceful Worldschoolers. There are Friday field trips, and if you join the What's app groups lots of ways to connect to other like-minded families.

FWIW, neurodiversity on a whole just isn't as obvious to most other kids who are meeting up in homeschool groups. There are mixed ages, parents are around, and it just ends up being a bit less apparent overall. Just my opinion, speaking from three years of experience with my own kid around the DMV.

Montgomery County Homeschoolers on FB. Most people are really nice; just talk about your son's interest and suggest a meet-up, and you can start to get to know folks.

Hi OP, we don’t homeschool, but when I take my youngest out to playgrounds etc I see many kids who sound similar to your son who seem to be doing homeschool “recess” (I’ll see the parents take them on, like, a nature walk after they play or I’ll see them doing workbooks at picnic tables). We aren’t in your area (Howard county) but it makes me think your situation must be relatively common - good luck finding your people.

PP again; you could also post on one of the local Facebook groups (like "Homeschooling in Nova" or "Secular Homeschooling in Nova") to try to find like-minded families. There are a number of special needs families in the homeschool community.

I am new to homeschooling. DS is in middle school with "Aspergers"/HFA and inattentive ADHD, doing an online school program right now for mental health reasons brought on by the school environment. We may do HHT and have a re-entry plan, but then again may withdraw and stay with homeschooling permanently if it goes well. DS could really use an opportunity to meet friends. Is most accepted by other "quirky" kids who do not judge, tease, exclude. Is there a way to connect with other homeschooled kids/families especially of this genre? I don't think I'm looking for a homeschool co-op, but would be open to exploring. I was thinking more just meetup opportunities, or even "field trips" for homeschooled kids that we could join? Especially with kids who might be accepting of DS.
Thank you for any information or resources!


Check out the Academy programs at Inquisiminds in Burke, if you're in VA. We've found it very welcoming.
