El Dorado Homeschoolers Network Resource Center
https://www.facebook.com/groups/360517857351491/about
Welcome to the El Dorado Homeschoolers Network. This group is designed to be a resource for local homeschooling families living in and around El Dorado County, California. There are no fees, meetings, or required time commitments. This is simply a place where homeschoolers can swap resources and ideas. We ask that posts are limited to the topic of homeschooling and/or parenting and must be non-judgmental and uplifting to all members of the group. There should not be any posts related to political agendas unless it pertains to homeschooling or an educational opportunity for homeschoolers. Also, please do not promote one style of homeschooling as better than another. We each have to do what's best for our families without judgment from those around us. This group is meant to be a safe place to share homeschool-related information such as educational events, requests for info on resources or curriculum options, and sharing supplies that you no longer need and would like to bless another family with.
Homeschool Families of Sac/Placer/El Dorado https://www.facebook.com/groups/577505859833009/
