Top 10 Reasons to Join Roadrunner

1. Give your child(ren) a social network of Christian "schoolmates" with whom to learn and socialize

2. Provide yourself a place to share the daily struggles & sucesses (ups & downs) of homeschooling with like-minded moms

3. Have opportunities for your child(ren) to learn social skills and how to get along with others in a supportive, Christian environment

(challenges like sharing, being honest but kind, following "group" rules, being a good audience, etc. NOT coping with bullies or kids with weapons or pressure to act like adults or drugs, etc.)

4. Access great educational opportunities (like group field trips/tours, clubs or classes) where you save money and time by participating with a group rather than trying to arrange, pay for or teach on your own

5. Experience others caring about and praying for you and your family, especially during challenging circumstances like layoffs, pregnancy, illnesses, deaths, etc.

6. Take the opportunity to volunteer in a Christian homeschool group so that you are a role model of service to your kids, a blessing to others and honoring God with some of your time/talent.

7. Give your children special school memories like holiday parties, group traditions like our "End of the Year Pool Party" or "Last Park Day - Firetruck Spray", weekly group "recess" time at park day, birthday acknowlegement, annual school pictures and yearbook opportunity, weekly school spirit theme for what to wear at park day, and more.

8. Have a place where Dads and extended family members are encouraged to attend any of our activities to share in your child(ren)'s group educational experiences and show Gramma & Grampa that you are not "weird" or "socially backward" :~)

9. Access information about homeschooling or family issue legislation, encouraging homeschooling articles, internet resources for homeschooling, and "Non-Roadrunner" but worthwhile educational opportunities

10. A lot of times we "just plain old" have fun together!
