South Carolina Homeschool Groups and SC Homeschooling Support

 

Getting connected to the information you need and to other experienced homeschool parents can help build confidence for new homeschool parents. Since homeschool laws vary from state to state, we recommend contacting a homeschool group within your state. The links below provide you with some support groups in South Carolina. Visit their websites or contact them for information. You can also see more details about South Carolina homeschool laws.

Another great source for information is your local school district office. With the increased popularity of homeschooling across South Carolina, it has become more common for the district superintendent to designate a staff member to assist homeschooling parents.

You can find more homeschool support under our 'Support' tab at the top of this page, including our free product catalog and free online learning sites for all core subjects. To find homeschool curriculum books and materials, just hold the mouse over the 'Shopping' tab. There you can shop by subject, by grade level, by brand and by product type.

Home schooling has never been easier in South Carolina!
