Welcome to Homeschooling in Maryland

Online Curriculum Fair

If you're beginning to think about curricular materials for next school year, take a look at our newly expanded Resource section. You'll find loads of links for homeschool resources, including free year-long history high school courses. Start with the Math Resource Section and work your way through your subject areas. You may be pleasantly surprised with what you find that's free. We'll be continuing to add new resources, so if you know of a great homeschool product or web-site let us know so we can add it to the list.

 


 

Looking for a Little Limelight?

Whether your teen likes to blog or is looking to begin to stretch their advocacy and lobbying legs; or you'd like to bring some attention to an especially pleasing talent or achievement - check out our new Media section. We'll post occasional press releases and announcements about opportunities that will help your homeschooler shine.

 


 

Maryland Assembly is Back in Session

UPDATE: Hand In Hand has reviewed over 815 pieces of legislation introduced into the Maryland Assembly for the current session, so far. Find out what changes may affect the cost of college education for homeschool chidren as well as graduation requirements, if your child returns to public school. We've even included something fun for teens... a bill that's all about text messaging.
