Veteran Homeschool Mom: Accessing Ancillary Services for Special Education & Information on Part-time Enrollment, Sports, Extracurricular etc.

Amy has been homeschooling in Washington state for over 25 years. She has 6 children; 4 are homeschool graduates and have moved on to college and careers. 2 are still at home. Nothing could have been better than living and learning together. She has also been on the board of WHO since 2004.

Linda Love Gorordo is a former homeschooling mom with expertise in homeschooling high school, hybrid schooling and university entrance. For 9 years, Linda has helped Washington parents, and their students find their own educational pathways.

Janice homeschooled her children all the way to college and careers. She lobbied for Washington’s Homeschool Law. As a longtime member of the WHO Advocacy Committee, she represented homeschooling at all education-related state agencies. She is passionate about encouraging new homeschoolers.

Jen Garrison Stuber is the Advocacy Chair for WHO. In this capacity, she has helped many families navigate homeschooling their children with special needs. Her own kidlet has ADHD, Dyslexia, ASD, and a clinically significant difference between the hemispheres of her brain.

I want every parent to be comfortable and confident in making informed decisions when it comes to their children’s education. I also would like for every child to have positive experiences when it comes to education and learning, keeping in mind that everyone is unique and has great potential.
