Calabash Area Christian Home Educators (CACHE)
Pee Dee
We are a local homeschool support group, here to help meet the needs of families choosing parent-directed home education as an alternative to public or private schools.
We exist to help families connect to each other, share events or opportunities, and support each other on the homeschooling journey. Our activities frequently take place between Little River and Shallotte, but sometimes extend farther out.
We come from many denominational backgrounds and homeschool for varied reasons. Beyond homeschooling, our common bond is our desire to honor the Lord GOD through our families and the education of our children, as we uphold biblical principles.
ANY homeschooling family is welcome to join us for any activity, please just understand upfront the majority of the members are coming from a Christian background/worldview - many of our meetings and events will open with prayer and our discussions and and encouragement will often include prayer, etc.
Group members are invited to plan field trips, classes, etc., as they meet their own families' needs, and share any open opportunities with the group. Just like a family, we function best when everyone does a little bit!

Calvary Christian Homeschool Partnership Program
Calvary Christian School is expanding its friendship with the homeschooling community.
Understanding that the Bible holds parents accountable for their children’s education and that their children are
receiving a Christ-centered worldview, CCS seeks to come along side parents and offer opportunities that may not
be available through traditional homeschooling.
The CCS Home Education Partnership program has been established for the purpose assisting Christian homes in
educating their children in accordance with biblical standards and credible academics. CCS seeks to be good
stewards of our excellent faculty and our facilities by seeking to accommodate the needs of homeschool families.

Free Forest School
Pee Dee
Freeform Secular Learning Cooperative
Pee Dee
Inspired by homeschool co-ops but not just for homeschoolers, Freeform Secular Learning Cooperative aims to bring people together for extra learning experiences. How -- you may ask? In a very casual way. Our goal is to get people together for networking and occasionally to learn something (if nothing else, we're working on our social-emotional skills). We want you to find your peeps and maybe, just maybe, go off and make your own cute co-op.
What this group aims to deliver:
An unhosted event every Friday and Saturday.
- You can show up with swag that lets other families know you're here for the same reasons (see swag here >> https://society6.com/art/freeform-secular-learning-co-op).
- And then you get your socializing on. Good luck!
In true co-op spirit, if you're interested in teaching something, let us know. You can leave a note in the event comments -- like "Hey, bring your iPads for this one and I'll teach you how to design and print your own t-shirts online!").
An important note: don't leave your little ones unattended. This is not one of those awesome drop-off co-ops -- this one is casual... free... unhosted.. ok, you got it.
If you'd like to see this meetup in your area, reach out.
Please be kind, open-minded, and whimsically creative.
