[post_content] => Scott Woodruff, a follower of Christ since 1971, earned his law degree from the University of Virginia. After working for John Ashcroft as an Assistant Attorney General for the state of Missouri, and later for a major regional insurance company, Scott joined the HSLDA team in 1998. He is a member of the United States Supreme Court bar.
Over the last 24 years, he has assisted thousands of families in conflicts with social workers, police officers, truant officers, principals, superintendents, judges and prosecuting attorneys. He has testified before state legislatures to advance and protect homeschool freedom in Maine, Virginia, Arkansas, Maryland, West Virginia, Illinois, Iowa, Missouri, South Dakota, Nevada, Idaho, and the U.S. Virgin Islands. He has helped write portions of the homeschool laws and parental rights laws of several states. As HSLDA’s Director of Legal and Legislative Advocacy, he is responsible for overseeing five lawyers and their assistants. He is HSLDA’s main attorney for issues in Pennsylvania and several other states.
Scott and his wife Jane married in 1983. They have three adult children whom they homeschooled, one child still at home--a very special 10-year old--and six grandchildren.

[post_content] => Sarah Collins, MSOT, OTR/L is an occupational therapist with a background in both pediatrics and home health, and a homeschooling parent. Sarah was first introduced to homeschooling in 2016 while working as an OT in a client’s home; she was amazed at the learning atmosphere and opportunities within the home. Now as an OT homeschooling her own family, she noticed that parents, though experts on their own children, were invariably asking the same questions and needed resources. As a result, HomeschoolOT was established. Sarah now provides classes, consultations, and community to homeschool families to help children thrive in the activities they specifically need and want to do. You can find Sarah online at www.homeschoolot.com on Instagram at www.instagram.com/homeschoolOT and in the Facebook group she moderates at www.facebook.com/groups/homeschooltherapyideas.com

[post_content] => Sarah Collins, MSOT, OTR/L is an occupational therapist with a background in both pediatrics and home health, and a homeschooling parent. Sarah was first introduced to homeschooling in 2016 while working as an OT in a client’s home; she was amazed at the learning atmosphere and opportunities within the home. Now as an OT homeschooling her own family, she noticed that parents, though experts on their own children, were invariably asking the same questions and needed resources. As a result, HomeschoolOT was established. Sarah now provides classes, consultations, and community to homeschool families to help children thrive in the activities they specifically need and want to do. You can find Sarah online at www.homeschoolot.com on Instagram at www.instagram.com/homeschoolOT and in the Facebook group she moderates at www.facebook.com/groups/homeschooltherapyideas.com

SCHOLA SCIENTIAE - LabLearner Science/STEM Program
10:30 am-11:15 am-
All children need to know they’re smart. This empowers them to have hope and believe in their future. When all 8 smarts are awakened and strengthened, children will know they can learn and will successfully study when something isn’t easy. When parents teach to all 8 and use them for review, motivation and learning improve.
Government, history, economics…these topics usually put students AND parents to sleep, yet they are some of the most important things we’ll teach if we expect the next generation to be good citizens and preserve the republic. In this presentation, Rick shares tips and methods for bringing history and civics to life, keeping it fun, engaging the students, seeking truth, and making the lessons count for generations to come.
“I won’t do it!” my child screamed after being asked to sit down and start the day’s math assignment. “You will too!” I resolutely stated back. “I will not!” And thereupon ensued an all-out fight of wills. The strong-willed mother determined to win over the strong-willed child. This workshop is designed to give you helpful tips in dealing with a strong-willed child, how to nurture as well as homeschool this child, how to stay sane in the midst of anguish, and give you hope for the future. Deborah Wuehler is the Senior Editor of The Old Schoolhouse® Magazine whose goal is to glorify God and strengthen homeschoolers in their commitment to keep their children Home Where They Belong.
Vendor Workshop - Your Talents are Worth Gold! 5 Things Your Student Should Do to Discern Career Options - Career Development Advisors
"With so many options, identifying the right path can be scary, hard and tricky. According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, individuals can have 3 to 5 careers in a lifetime and 9 to 11 jobs. It's not all about intellect. It is more than interests or personality alignment.
With the rising cost of college tuition, it's important to know how to help your child discern their next steps. While it's important to identify specific jobs/careers, it's equally necessary to figure out the environment and culture that is most suitable for your child, too, as this makes a huge difference on their ability to thrive, their emotional well-being and using their talents.
Join Julie Shore, Recruiter & Career Coach, and Matt Shore, Former School Administrator, as they share best practices in helping you and/or your child identify best career options."
Vendor Workshop - In the Trenches: Multi-Grade, Multi-Age, All Together without Mom Losing her Mind! – BiblioPlan
Are you longing to find ways in your day to bring all your children together around the table? Do you need refreshing tips that show you how to combine subjects in a way that meets the needs of all your children? Are you weary of juggling different history time periods for the different grade levels or tackling the extra work your curriculum requires you to do just to teach a lesson? Spend some time with Karen, from BiblioPlan, as she shares numerous practical helps for teaching across multiage levels drawing from both a classical style and a Charlotte Mason approach.
11:30 am-12:15 pm-
Your children have five legitimate needs that drive their wants, choices, actions, and attitudes. (You have the same five needs.) When their needs aren’t met in healthy ways, they can be anxious, depressed, apathetic, competitive, and more. When God meets their needs and you partner well with Him, your children will have less stress and depression and more contentment and joy. You’ll be refreshed by Dr. Kathy’s practical problem-solving approach to behavior, learning, and motivation problems.
Taking manipulatives out of the kindergarten classroom and recognizing their benefit in teaching mathematical concepts all the way to Algebra can make a proven difference in students’ mathematical comprehension. Explore the science that helps unlock the key to long-term mathematical understanding. This workshop will be of particular benefit to parents who struggle to help their children learn mathematically.
Presently there is a big identity crisis among males regarding what a man is. There is no clear transition from childhood to manhood, and the culture has defined men simplistically. As a result, many fathers are relationally isolated and emotionally disconnected leaving them at a loss for how to lead boys into manhood. This workshop will address the culture’s attack on boys/males, the impact of biology on boys/males learning style, mentoring and educational principles to help boys develop into honorable men and concrete action steps moms and dads can take in the developmental process of boys.
This workshop will show parents how to use Great Picture Books to introduce and engage young children in the stories and values that make America exceptional. The focus is on the joy of sharing great stories and beautiful artwork with our children, while at the same time passing along the family values, including our Christian heritage, that make America exceptional. We will also discuss the critical importance of reading aloud to our children and share some of the research about the difference it makes in their developing brains. But it's mostly about having a great time reading together as a family, with a focus on age-appropriate stories of American History!
Vendor Workshop - Protect Your Homeschool Investment from the University's Brutal Minds
BRUTAL MINDS is a sober and unflinching account of far-left brainwashing methods in our colleges—how it's done, who is guilty, and what parents and students can do about it. I'd put a copy of BRUTAL MINDS in the hands of every college-bound high school senior in the country, especially those homeschooled whose parents have invested themselves in instilling values as well as knowledge. We may not be able to reform our universities in one stroke, as much as we'd like to see it, but we can arm students with the information, the knowledge, and the courage to face-down groupmind bureaucrats and, in fact, neutralize them right now.
1:30 pm-2:15 pm-
Using technology can cause children (and you) to believe five lies about how the world works. These lies are the root of some of your biggest concerns about children’s behavior (e.g., complaining, pride, anger, depression, selfish decision making). Understanding why they believe the lies and what the lies cause will empower you to make practical changes even as they keep using technology. You’ll find hope in this message.
Good readers are not necessarily early readers. And, early readers don’t always grow up to love reading. God designs each child differently as He deems fit for His purposes. Deborah Wuehler, Senior Editor of The Old Schoolhouse® Magazine, will talk about her own struggling readers and the practical things that helped them jump those hurdles. Deborah will show you how to have victory over your own obstacles as you keep your children Home Where They Belong.
Vendor Workshop - Discipline with Love so We Don't Break our Child's Spirit and Harm our Relationship with Them - Monica Irvine with The Etiquette Factory
"I know you have felt the pain of regret when you have had a moment of failure when discipling your children. I know many of you are fighting against habits you learned from your parents that you swore you would never do. I know you want to parent with love, honor and respect, but sometimes, you don't.
Listen to Master Motivator, Monica Irvine, share some invaluable insights in parenting with greater love, greater understanding and greater self-control. Mrs. Irvine will help you to understand the difference in disciplining to stop or start behavior and disciplining to influence our children's hearts. It makes ALL the difference. If you want a loving happy healthy relationship with your adult children, you must start today creating that relationship. Don't miss this!"
Five years ago, I asked 10 homeschooling families that had completed their homeschooling journey of at least 10 years what they would repeat if they had a second chance. I compiled the results and will share the 15 tips with which ALL 10 families agreed!

You are not alone. The Principles of Liberty still work when we work them. And YOU have a role to play in a proven plan for restoring freedom.

Vendor Workshop - Get your House, Clean-Fast and Effective – Norwex

(Mark 12:30) The Bible has always told us to think on those things which are noble and good and true, to let the weak say they are strong, that as a man thinketh so is he, and on and on… Now, neurological science is proving the Bible right once again as it reveals to us how God designed the brain to be renewed, literally re-wired and re-trained. When we intentionally, purposefully, consistently wash our thoughts with His Word and program our computer with His promises, the brain is literally remade…the old neurological connections are overridden with new ones and we truly replace the old man with what Paul called the new man. Learn how to practically replace bad habits, how to restore a joyful attitude, and how to instill your children with one of the most important life skills of all… renewing the mind!
