Help Spread the Word!

As always, we encourage you to share information about the convention with anyone you think may be interested--not only homeschoolers, but also anyone looking to breathe new life into their ministries as parents. This convention is for everyone interested in homeschooling and child-rearing!

Besides spreading the word via word of mouth, you can help by posting flyers in homeschooler-friendly and family-friendly locations that permit you to do so. Examples of such locations might include local businesses, libraries, churches, activity centers, and Christian bookstores (perhaps you know of other locations). You can download a copy of the flyer for printing and displaying by clicking here. Please always obtain permission to post flyers before you do.

You will need Adobe Acrobat Reader to open this PDF file, which is available as a free download from Adobe.

Something Special for Our Graduating Seniors

All current LEAH member families are eligible to participate in our annual LI/NYC LEAH commencement ceremony. This ceremony gives parents the opportunity to present a diploma to your graduating student and provides a time of celebration for the family. Although participation by families of seniors requires registration, attendance is also open to convention visitors. It's a great opportunity for LEAH parents of teens to see what a LEAH graduation ceremony is like!

The early registration deadline for this year's commencement was February 1, 2010. Any registrations sent in at this time will incur a $20 late fee. No registrations at all will be accepted after February 28.

For more information and to obtain the necessary registration form, download our Commencement Registration Packet by clicking here. You will need Adobe Acrobat Reader to open this PDF file, which is available as a free download from Adobe.
