This Week in Homeschooling: August 2nd-8th of 2026
Hello and welcome back, NEO Homeschoolers! Welcome to August... back to school season is upon us. Do you do anything fun for "back to homeschool" for your kiddos? I've recently seen several posts about celebrating the start of homeschool instead of celebrating "back to school" and even added a pin featuring that kind of content on my August Homeschool Inspiration Pinterest board. Check it out here. Now then, let's dive into what's happening around NE Ohio this week!
