Used Curriculum Sale:
July 27, 2013
Our annual Used Curriculum Sale for 2012 was a huge success, held at Chapel of the Cross in Westboro, conveniently located near the Massachusetts Turnpike. Over 24,000 items were available for sale or in our room full of free items. More than $20,000.00 of sales were processed on behalf of individual sellers. The sale is one of the highlights of our year as hundreds of homeschoolers seek out bargains for the next school year. Every year thousand of items, including loads of free ones, find new homes. Stay tuned for information about this year's sale and make plans to be there.

CRITICAL ISSUES

Parental Rights:

This is an issue of great importance to homeschoolers everywhere.  Parental rights are increasingly threatened as more members of our judiciary begin to take cues from international law and custom.  These are decidedly unfriendly to homeschooling. For more information and to join the battle to preserve parental rights, please visit  www.parentalrights.org.

Charter Schools:

MassHOPE opposes any federal or state funding initiatives to support charter schools or other types of “public school at home” programs.  Such programs undermine total educational freedom of parents. For further information on this subject, we suggest the DVD "The Trojan Horse" which explains these programs from our perspective. The DVD is available for $7 from MassHOPE. Order by mail from MassHOPE, 46 South Road, Holden, MA 01520 or call us at 508-829-0973.
