Open HousesiCAL Export
WISDOM supports parents in their role as primary educators while meeting Alberta Education's requirements. Our support includes facilitators who are certificated teachers as well as home educating parents or who were home educated themselves - facilitators who encourage and provide guidance in navigating the educational adventure.
Come learn about home schooling and about how WISDOM can help your family achieve your unique goals. Our Spring Open Houses and Information Sessions are open to the public. Some events include socials for the whole family, while others are adult-only information sessions.
During times when we have no Open Houses scheduled, please consider watching the video below:
