2014-Conference-Logo_Horiz_Color2

Held at: The Cultural Arts Center at Glen Allen in Glen Allen, Virginia

Keynote Speaker: Susan Wise Bauer

Dr. Bauer has been an influential advocate for neo-classical education, and both her Story of the World book series and The Well-Trained Mind have a place in the libraries of many homeschooling families. In addition to the Keynote Address (which will be delivered both Friday and Saturday) she will be speaking on topics including classical education for kids who are not so interested in academics, learning literary analysis, and preparing for college.

Featured Speaker: Julie Bogart

We are so excited to have Brave Writer’s Julie Bogart at the conference this year. She draws on her years of experience as a professional writer and homeschool parent to help parents facilitate kids’ emerging voices as writers. You will have multiple opportunities to hear her speak and to participate in her sessions, which range from creating your fantasy homeschool to getting prepared for high school writing.
