Don’t forget meeting at 10 am Monday at St. Helena Library
Maria Benac, St. Helena Library manager, has invited all interested homeschoolers to an informational, idea generating, new school year programming meeting. 
This beautiful facility is full of resources just waiting to be used. Although it is a bit further than the downtown library, it is very available for homeschoolers (and the whole community).
Maria is open to programming ideas and ways the library can help you with homeschooling!
The St. Helena branch has a full Apple lab that is conducive to classes on producing videos and commercials as well as robotics programs.
Please come on July 28th @ 10 am to 6355 Jonathan Francis Senior Road, St. Helena, SC 29920
And another thought…. maybe if we use this library it will give us an opportunity to reach out to others in the St. Helena community.

Etiquette Class Update
From Cindy Malphrus –
I have had such a huge response to the Etiquette class offering that I am considering offering it on 2 different days in order to accommodate everyone.
I have been approved by the church to hold my classes in the youth building on Tuesdays from 12:30-2:30 folowing Mrs Stephanie Fowler’s class. Also- I will offer a Thursday morning class from 10:30-12:30, before Stephanie’s Thursday afternoon class. We will have food at both classes.
Please RESPOND and let me know which day you prefer. The cost will be $40 per month per child for the first and $30 for the second child.
I will be scheduling a parent meeting in August and the classes will begin Tuesday, Sep 2nd. I will update everyone on the parent meeting date and time.
Please pass the word about this class! There are a lot of unsaved families who homeschool! We will be going through the fruit of the Spirit and how our manners are clear evidence of fruit in our lives! And- with any luck, we will be Shagging like pros! Cindy Malphrus cindyemalphrus@gmail.com

Sports through Beaufort County Schools
Because of the Amended Charter School Act Provision, homeschooled, charter and Governor School students may participate in extracurricular activities in their school district. Not every student will want to take advantage of this program, but we are grateful that homeschooled students now have this opportunity. Many CBCCA students participated last year and had a great experience. We hope that our homeschooled students will be both a blessing and an asset to the local schools’ athletic programs. Please click here to read how the law affects homeschoolers. Football, swimming, volleyball, competitive cheerleading, girls tennis, girls golf and cross country usually have a first practice date in August. According to the Homeschool Eligibility Request Process you need to submit your request to the district Request(s) received at the District Educational Service Center from the parent/guardian ten (10) days prior to tryouts/practice of a requested sport. Application serves as notice of a student’s intent to participate.
