susie Posted April 24, 2009 Share Posted April 24, 2009 My hubby and I are in the process of researching less expensive places to live and are seriously considering moving. We currently live in New Jersey and homeschool our boys. I love homeschooling in NJ because it is hassle free and we are a part of some incredible co-ops (one fine arts centered and one academic). Financially it has become increasingly difficult to live in this state! (especially with such a "large" family--we have 5 dc). We have homeschooled for 2 years now and follow a classical education. We are considering moving to Georgia since we have some family there--possibly Athens or Atlanta. Can anyone provide advice/input on what it is like to homeschool in Georgia (I've read up on the legal stuff at HSLDA) in those areas? Are there co-ops? support groups? Please forgive me if these are basic questions--still new to homeschooling and loving it. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jenny in Atl Posted April 24, 2009 Share Posted April 24, 2009 I think it's very easy to homeschool in GA. Yes, we have a few forms and tests, but really they are not a big deal at all. There are a number of groups in the metro Atlanta area, both faith based and inclusive. Lots of natural & historical areas for field trips, and an overall homeschooling friendly atmosphere. Here is a great list of groups & resources for GA. http://homeschooling.gomilpitas.com/regional/GeorgiaSupport.htm hth's! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EarleneW Posted April 24, 2009 Share Posted April 24, 2009 We live in Roswell (North Atlanta) and it was very easy here. There are alot of groups and you are out of the Atlanta rat race. Our kids are in private school now, but the last 2 years were very easy, both law and co-op wise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
