A day of enrichment for homeschool students
We are starting up our Moms in Prayer hour hosted, once again, by Alison Doyle.
Moms in Prayer will meet at 8:30 AM every Friday during ODE. We will pray over our children, our homes, our relationships and whatever we bring to share.
Please join us for prayer this Friday at 8:30 AM.

The Oak Park String Academy has daytime lessons available and would love to add homeschooled children to their available slots.
***Special note from Meg Lanfear:
If families sign up before September, they will receive a discount of $135 off! I am always willing to work with families who can come for lessons during the day, so even if lessons are something that a family might think is out of their reach, they should contact me to discuss.

The purpose of music instruction is not to create professional musicians, but to develop the whole child through the study of music. Dr. Suzuki’s goal was not simply to develop professional musicians, but to nurture loving human beings and help develop each child’s character through the study of music. Our faculty also think of music as a means of teaching children skills like the ability to focus one’s attention, time management, goal-setting, the satisfaction of hard work (and accompanying success), teamwork, and self-assessment. These are valuable skills for all children, homeschooled or otherwise!

Taking kids to the park this summer? Join other homeschool families and increase the fun! Here is the park schedule of parks and dates.
We will join TEACH's park days to draw on more local homeschool families. This is a great way to meet new people or catch up with old friends. Park Days will be on Thursdays for the months of June and August while Park Days will be on Fridays for the month of July. Meet up time is 12pm. Kids play and moms chat! Sometimes there are only a couple of moms and kids, and sometimes there’s a crowd. Either way, it’s always fun. Sunscreen and lunches are recommended; blankets and chairs are handy to have. If you’d rather enjoy the pool that is available at that park start a thread to see if others want to join you. Marshell will not make it out to all the park days but you are still welcome to call, text or email her.
For questions regarding Park Days: Marshell Edwards Cell (773) 677-2348 or marshell.edwards@icloud.com
All the parks listed have washrooms and some have tennis courts, ball fields and other special areas, so bring any equipment you think may be fun to have.
This opportunity has already passed.
