DMV Homeschooling Mini-Conference 2025:

Homeschooling with Joy

Saturday, March 29th 10am-1pm

6040 Wilson Blvd, Arlington

Scholé center for innovative education presents

A conference for local homeschoolers


We are so excited to welcome you to the first conference for homeschoolers local to the DMV! We envision a day where homeschooling parents can learn, rest, and connect with other like-minded families in the area.

This conference will be short and sweet, affordable, and open to all homeschooling (or homeschool-curious) parents in DC, Maryland, and Virginia. Infants are welcome, but we ask parents to make alternative arrangements for older children in order to facilitate a day of focused learning and conversation.
