Welcome to the Wayne County Christian Home Educators site!

Residents of the Wayne County, Ohio, area who are home educating their children out of conservative Christian convictions are invited to apply for membership in WCCHE, Wayne County Christian Home Educators, in Wooster, OH.   WCCHE is a local support group for such homeschoolers and strives to network national, state and local information pertaining to home education.

We also encourage member families in their conviction to impart to their children an education from a conservative Biblical worldview. Benefits include: educational classes/activities, field trips, parent support, a monthly newsletter, home education information and social activities. Our group is made up of families such as yours, who contribute their various gifts and talents toward one another in support.

Our statement of faith is included in the "About Us" section.

If you are considering joining us, please feel free to look around. For those of you who have been members in the past, we have transitioned to a yahoo group for member communication. There will be no members-only section to this website.

If you are new to homeschooling and just want advice on how to get started, we ask that you would please limit contact with us to questions specifically regarding the WCCHE co-op, and not present general questions to our leadership about homeschooling. We don't want to be rude, but we are just busy homeschooling moms, too, and there are many wonderful resources both on the web (websites, forums, and blogs) and in the library (Meg Dobucki maintains a separate homeschooling section at the main library in Wooster and bends over backwards to help homeschoolers, including by putting together a fabulous "getting started" packet) to answer a great many of your questions if you're considering homeschooling in general. We have provided some links on the "Useful Links" page to wonderful resources to get you going on the right foot! We will try to keep adding to this list as ideas are submitted to us. Once you become a member of the group, obviously we are here to support each other and swap ideas as much as possible.

If you are committing to homeschooling during the 2012-2013 school year, we would be excited to have you become a part of our support group! There is great value in working side by side each week with a mom who's done this for 10, 15, or even 20 years when you're just getting started--it's Biblical!! So we hope to meet you soon!
