Midwest
Parent Educators
In the fall of
1986, a small group of 17 home schooling families
gathered to pool its resources and to provide
encouragement and fellowship for one another.
This was the beginning of the Johnson County
Parent Educators (JCPE).
In late 2001, the JCPE membership voted to change
the name of the organization to the Midwest Parent
Educators (MPE).
JCPE/MPE has experienced growth commensurate with
that of the home schooling movement nationally.
We serve home educators in the greater Kansas
City metro area, including many from Wyandotte, Miami,
and Douglas counties in Kansas and from counties in
Kansas City, Missouri.

GETTING
SCHOOL CREDIT IN KANSAS
|
|
If you want to get school credit
for Kansas homeschool students, you have to hire a service to keep
records of all school courses that your children complete at
home. Since requirements vary from state to state, we
recommend using a service located within Kansas.
Learning Things can provide you with the materials which can
be used to qualify for credit in any state. However, Learning
Things does not verify that your student has completed the
materials. For that, you would need to hire a record keeping
service. These services
are authorized by the state to keep records of your activities
and award your children with credits. To find a service in
your area, we recommend contacting any of the sources listed
above.
