Homeschool Resources

Homeschool Group at the library!

Looking for a welcoming space where your homeschooler can learn, create and connect with others? Join us at the Rock Springs Library for a weekly program crafted for homeschool families like yours!

Our homeschool group is every Tuesday and Thursday at 1:30 PM, starting the second week of September and continuing through early June. For school-aged children, kindergarten through 12^th grade.

Each week brings something new, from storytelling and science to comics, puzzles, and nature-themed fun every visit brings something new. Whether your child is a budding artist, curious problem-solver, or eager socializer there is something here for everyone. Join us this school year for engaging activities, new friendships, and plenty of chances to discover something new!

We understand homeschooling looks different for every family, so we have created a program that’s flexible and engaging, giving kids plenty of ways to learn, explore, and connect at their own pace. Whether you’re new to homeschooling or have been doing it for years we are excited to welcome you.

Kick off the home school year at the Rock Springs Library with a fun and engaging month all about creativity, learning, and connection. 

We are starting off the school year by celebrating Library Card Sign-Up Month with a full month of activities focused on creativity, community, and getting to know your library. Throughout September, our programs will highlight all the fun and useful ways your homeschooler can get involved with the library!

How Do We Protect Our Homeschooling Freedoms?

There are five main things that you can do, as a homeschooler in Wisconsin, to protect homeschooling freedoms.

1. Know the history of homeschooling in Wisconsin and why homeschooling in Wisconsin is unique.
2. Know the law and homeschool responsibly. Do what is required of homeschoolers and no more.
3. Do not push for additional legislation for homeschoolers. Legislation is often amended and rarely passes in the condition that it was introduced.
4. Do not ask for favors from the government. Favors and money from the government naturally come with oversight and regulation.
5. Contact your legislators throughout the year to let them know that homeschooling is working in Wisconsin, and that homeschoolers do not support any changes to Wisconsin’s reasonable homeschooling law.
