Welcome to H.E.A.R.T.
Welcome!
Whether you're new to homeschooling, or already homeschooling but new to Marion County, H.E.A.R.T. Inc. is a group that can help you on your journey.
We are NOT a private/academic school, often referred to as Umbrella Schools.
Each family in our group is independently responsible for the education of their children, their choice of curriculum, and record keeping.
Our group provides the platform for people to exchange ideas, resources, personal experiences, and at times benefit from group rates or discounts.
Thanks to some of our members who volunteer their time, we're also able to provide various social, academic, and sporting events. These activities give our homeschool children the opportunity to come together with other children.
You must be a member to participate in our events and activities.
To become a member, click on "Join" located at the top right of this page.
We accept membership year-round.
We look forward to getting to know you and your family!
- Your 2020-2021 HEART Board
