Frisco Home Is School is a support group. It is our mission to help local homeschooling moms through helping them connect with each other, offering support, and serving each other. 

We help our members connect with other homeschool moms by offering fun “moms only” events like coffee nights, holiday parties, movie night, and other great opportunities to hang out for just an hour or two without our children. 

Some of the ways we offer support to our members is through “Table Talks” which are informal informational get togethers regarding various homeschooling and parenting topics such as curriculum, preparing high school transcripts, homeschooling with special needs, homeschooling multiple ages, etc. 

We also hope to be able to serve each other when the need arises. We are here for moms and sometimes moms need a little extra help. We have been honored to bring meals to families when a new member is added, when there is an illness or surgery in a family, and many other circumstances where mom just needed one less thing on her plate for a few days! We have also served families in other ways and our members have formed a wonderful network of skills and abilities! 

Another big way we serve our members is through various activities for their children! Our members volunteer to host things like field trips, park meetups, holiday parties, Lego Club, Science Club, Chess Club, Drama Club(Ages 13+), family picnics, game nights and hang outs for high schoolers, and many other fun chances to get together with old friends and make new ones!

Q:

The meeting times of our activities vary. Lego Club and Chess Club meet once a month. We have a park meet up once a week but if a mom would like to volunteer to host additional dates then we would welcome them to! The same goes for our field trips and other activities, they are all based on how many moms volunteer to help us host an activity or field trip. Many of the “moms only” events are hosted by the Frisco HIS board but our members are also welcome to host additional mom events as well! Our board is made up of only a few homeschooling moms just like you. They are not paid and they have their own families to care for so they can’t do it all! Frisco HIS depends on our members to serve each other through volunteering to help with the events and activities that we all enjoy so much!
