Welcome to HERO - HS!
Home Educators Resource Organization for High School

(HERO-HS) Home Educators Resource Organization for High School will continue to provide supplemental academic opportunities for high school homeschoolers in the Raleigh, North Carolina area. Additionally, students will be encouraged to participate in quarterly community service projects.  Occasional field trips and social activities may also be planned.

Supplemental academic opportunities are intended for high school students in grades 9-12.  Motivated 7th and 8th grade students will be accepted based upon parental discretion and approval of lead tutor.

Parents will be supported by occasional meetings addressing specific concerns of homeschooled high school students such as transcript preparation, dual enrollment, etc.  Our Yahoo Group, HERO-HS, will provide a forum for support, announcements and encouragement for parents.  Our Facebook group for students and parents provides another avenue for information sharing and support.

Parent volunteers are needed to serve as lead tutors, assistant tutors and substitute tutors.  This will enable us to offer supplemental academic opportunities for free and/or for reasonable fees. 

Parents are the primary teachers of their children and HERO-HS is providing supplemental and enrichment activities for them.

HERO-HS sessions will be held at Highland Baptist Church in Garner on Fridays from 8:55 a.m. until 2:00 p.m.  (See tentative schedule at tab above.)  Students enrolled in all 3 classes may be dropped off beginning at 8:45 a.m. and must be picked up no later than 2:10 p.m.  Students who are not enrolled in all 3 classes should be picked up promptly at the end of their class.  We will not have a waiting area available due to other church activities. 

General registration for the 2012-2013 school year will be open within the next week and will remain open until all slots are filled.  A waiting list will be started if necessary.  Preference will be given to students registering for all 3 sessions.  A mandatory parent meeting will be held in early August.  Liability waivers and medical forms are required to be completed and turned in no later than the mandatory parent meeting.  Materials fees will also be due at the parent meeting.

Registration fees are $20.00 per student (With a maximum of $50 per family) and must be turned in with registration forms in order to secure your spot.  Registration fees are non-refundable.
