Hi, It looks like we will be moving to the Dallas/Richardson/Garland area of Texas shortly and I would love to know if there are any classical education or classical conversation groups that meet up in those areas? Also wouldn't mind if anyone had suggestions for a great pediatrician's office there. The one we use where we are now is SUPER - the doctor does not hassle me about doing vaccines on my own schedule (I am not anti vaccine but I research the vaccines I have my children get and decide whether I think they should have the vaccine right then AND I also decide when they will get them as we have some medical/severe reactions to certain meds in our family so I prefer not to have them get five things at once if they have never had any of those before. Harder to distinguish which they might be reacting to if they have a reaction to one of the five or six they get, etc.). I also love that our office here has a 24 hour line where you can reach a nurse on call, and they have a Saturday clinic. They are wonderful and I would love to find something similar in the Dallas, Richardson, Garland area. Thanks! :)

Thanks for the replies. Bumping this up again...

Hi, I am from Longview, Texas and was wondering if anyone else out there might be from Longview or our area and doing classical ed homeschooling? Michelle

Wow, sounds like you and I are in a similar boat here. Thank you all for offering so much advice! Even though this was not my post - it seemed like it could have come right from me judging from the situation I find myself in right now. :001_smile: I appreciate all the links and suggestions. For what it is worth - I am probably going to try Saxon K this year to see how my child likes it. My mom had used it when she taught K, and I believe she said it was very hands-on which I think my daughter will enjoy. Plus the K level can apparently be used a year earlier - which would be about where she is now. The nice thing is, if she doesn't enjoy it or does not want to keep up with it this year - I don't need to stress b/c she is still so young. I can try something different next year. Because Saxon also sounds very structured and scripted, it will also give me the opportunity to see how she handles that type of learning environment.
