Tennessee’s largest home school expo wrapped up its second and final day today with nearly a hundred vendors peddling textbooks, computer software, and other learning tools used by parents and teachers in the home.
Along with the games, equipment, and all kinds of books, vendors and customers touted the more intangible “support” within the home school community. The two-day event in East Ridge at the Camp Jordan Arena brought that community together and made for a reunion place of sorts.
“Mostly I come to see people,” said Kyle Johnson, of Signal Mountain, a home schooled graduate. “It really is a hang-out for us, for other home-schoolers to see each other, and see what home-schooling families are working on. There’s normally good book set-ups to look at too that would interest anyone.”
The arena was filled to the brim with 97 vendors, about 60 workshops, and an expected 1300 families.
“Everything you need to educate your child is under this roof,” organizer Jan Bontekoe, a home school veteran from Lookout Valley, said.
