We offer freedom along with quality resources, information, activities and support to those homeschooling in Alabama. We believe that the parent has the best interests of their children at heart. We believe that the parent is the first and only teacher that a child needs. In keeping with this philosophy, we wish to be a very hands-off cover school and allow the parent to lead and guide their children in the direction and at the pace they feel is best suited to their children. We ask only for what the law requires while offering support along with quality resources to aid families in their efforts.

April 7 Deadline: Why Space Matters Contest


Space exploration has challenged, inspired and improved us for more than half a century. Today, theCoalition for Space Exploration (Coalition), in partnership with the recently-formed NASA Visitor Centers Consortium announced an expansion of the Coalition’s “Why Space Matters to the Future” video contest that encourages residents of the United States to visualize what life will be like in 10, 25 or 50 years if the boundaries of space continue to expand.

Entrants submit a short video that captures their vision of why the exploration of space matters and how it will benefit future generations. Three winners will receive a VIP trip to one of three NASA’s Visitor Centers: Kennedy Space Center Visitor Complex in Florida, Space Center Houston in Texas, or the U.S. Space and Rocket Center in Alabama. Winning videos will also be shared with the general public and national leaders throughout the nation. For more information, contest rules and video uploading instructions, go to VisitNASA.com.
