Our purpose is to support and encourage Central Kentucky

important legislative information. The agenda of the
meetings varies but we usually have a time for
announcements of upcoming field trips, workshops or
other activities. We may have a guest speaker and we
always have time for fellowship. We keep members
informed each month by sending out a newsletter that
contains information about the previous meeting and the
activities offered. |

GETTING
SCHOOL CREDIT IN KENTUCKY
|
|
If you want to get school credit
for Kentucky 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 Kentucky.
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.
