The high school years offer so many options and opportunities for homeschool students! And whether your student is aiming for more education or the workplace, or stepping into ministry or trades, you and your teen can craft a plan for the high school years that will help define and meet the goals that provide the launching pad into the future. At the #AFHE Convention in July, Cheri Frame, founder of Credits Before College, will present three workshops in our high school track to assist and inspire you toward this end. If you are wondering what this might look like for your family, come and be encouraged that “You CAN Homeschool through High School” (at Cheri’s first workshop of the weekend). What’s more, Cheri’s research and action plan helped her kids graduate from college debt-free – come find out how! #AFHE @AFHEcon2019 #HomeschoolStrong #HomeschoolArizona afhe.org/convention/speakers
Dr. Jenn Murff, whom we welcome to the #AFHE Convention for the first time in 2019, is the president of Millennials for Marriage and a homeschool mom of four. Jenn’s research and writing have addressed the topics of education, marriage, motherhood, and the family. She uses relevant research, cultural observation, and personal experience to encourage and influence her generation toward healthy perspectives on marriage and the family. Homeschool group leaders and ministry leaders, one of Jenn’s scheduled sessions on Friday is designed to help you gain a deeper understanding of Millennial moms. And this working mom also has a message for other working moms out there – come to the Convention and attend this special session just for you! #AFHEcon2019 #HomeschoolArizona #HomeschoolStrong @MillennialsforMarriage
We’ll introduce another new speaker in our next post, but let’s take today to welcome these longtime friends of #AFHE, Hal & Melanie Young! The Youngs have served as local and state leaders and in ministry nationwide for many years. They are prolific authors, speakers, bloggers, and encouragers! Their ministry seeks to “make Biblical family life practical” and extends far beyond homeschooling – encompassing parenting, marriage, book and movie reviews, entrepreneurship, and much more. Raising eight kids gives them lots of material to discuss, which is to your benefit as you choose from topics ranging from homeschooling through hard times to preparing sons to deal with the challenges they face in our culture, as well as the much-appreciated “Sanity’s in the Freezer” workshop! Check out all their workshop topics on our convention page on the website! #AFHEcon2019 #HomeschoolArizona #HomeschoolStrong #raisingrealmen www.afhe.org/convention/speakers/
Another favorite speaker returns to the #AFHE Convention! Andrew Pudewa’s decades of experience in teaching writing, training teachers and parent-teachers, developing curriculum, establishing the widely respected Institute for Excellence in Writing, and being a homeschool dad himself have made him a valued leader in the homeschool movement. Don’t miss your opportunity to attend one of Andrew’s sessions on language, leadership, and the homeschool life. Your high school students can also attend a four-hour writing seminar with Mr. Pudewa on Thursday, July 18 – find the registration link on the convention page on our website. #AFHEcon2019 #HomeschoolArizona www.afhe.org/convention/speakers/
Ready to meet our second keynote speaker?? One exciting aspect of this year’s speaker lineup is that we will be introducing TWELVE speakers who are new to the #AFHE Convention! One of these new-to-Arizona speakers is Woody Robertson, a homeschool grad himself and co-founder of Lumerit Unbound. Woody will speak at our opening session on Friday morning to motivate us with his explanation of why homeschooling “works” and is worth the dedication and effort it requires. His other workshops will challenge your perspective about education and help lift your gaze beyond the challenging logistics and the “just get it done” mindset that can drag you down. Our teen program attendees will hear from Woody, too, with sessions about powerful study strategies and understanding the changing college scenario in America today. Be at our opening session on Friday morning to welcome Woody Robertson to Arizona! #AFHEcon2019 #HomeschoolArizona #HomeschoolStrong www.afhe.org/convention/speakers/
It’s time to start introducing our convention speakers! This year’s #AFHE Convention will have TWO keynote speakers who are eager to encourage and inspire our whole homeschooling community! Because many of you have asked (and asked repeatedly!), we have invited Heidi St. John to join us for our “Enjoy the Journey” weekend! Yes! Heidi returns with her powerful and personal messages which are always tuned in to the reality of the homeschool journey and its life-changing potential in our country and our world. Her workshop topics throughout the weekend will address the needs and concerns of parents at every stage of homeschooling – and will include a special marriage-oriented session taught by Heidi with her husband Jay. Make plans now to stay through the final session on Saturday afternoon for Heidi’s keynote message to wrap up our time together. Visit the convention page on our website to see all the titles and descriptions! #AFHEcon2019 #HomeschoolArizona #HomeschoolStrong #heidistjohn www.afhe.org/convention/speakers/
