Welcome!
ECHO is an outreach group designed to help families
learn about homeschooling. ECHO provides this support via Yahoo Group communication, and connecting families with
homeschooling support groups.
Our
organization grew out of an unmet need of support for families with
young children. As the years have passed and our own children have
grown, the need for a transformation of the group has been recognized.
According to Research Facts on Homeschooling*, by Brian D. Ray, Ph.D.,
homeschooling may be the fastest-growing form of education in the
United States (at 7% to 12% per year). *Source: www.nheri.org
Those
of you who have been with ECHO for a long time probably realize that we
have been a volunteer-run organization. Currently, ECHO-MN is managed by Jennifer King, a single mom who is homeschooling her two youngest children while her oldest attends a local community college under the PSEO program.
Jennifer King now offers private homeschool consulting. If you are in need of personalized support, more detailed information, or hands-on help with any aspect of your homeschool, contact us to set up an appointment with Jennifer today.
