Home School Conventions
The Education Alliance is host to Arkansas' only annual home school conventions: One in Searcy, Arkansas and one in Springdale, Arkansas.
Home school conventions offer families the opportunity to interact with other home schoolers from around the state, attend workshops and seminars on home education--with topics ranging from how to start home schooling
to how to get into college--and find good deals on the latest curricula. Attendees also have the opportunity to stop by the Education Alliance booth to ask experienced individuals tough questions they have about
home schooling in Arkansas.
Registration for conventions is done on a per-family basis, is good for the entire weekend of the convention you choose to attend, and will give you and your family access to the Exhibit, all of the workshops and
every other benefit the convention has to offer. You may register online by following the steps below, or you may wait and register at the door the day of the convention. Bear in mind however, that we offer
Early Bird discounts to those who register online before May 1, so you may not want to delay too long.
Below is an overview of the upcoming home school conventions. You can use it to register, review schedules, and learn more about the services that the Education Alliance has to offer through these events.
Important: Shop for FREE Thursday, May 20, 2010, at the Northwest Arkansas Convention. This year, the Education Alliance will open the Exhibit Hall on Thursday, May 20, 2010, absolutely free of charge. This is your opportunity to browse the Exhibit Hall without paying to get in the door, but it's only good Thursday night. Call (501) 978-5503 for more information.
