Lori Walker on Village Home Off-Trail Learning
-
- Education
What if there was a community college built just for homeschoolers? This may not exist yet, but Lori Walker has created the next best thing: Village Home Education Resource Center (villagehome.org). For 17 years Village Home has served young people (from pre-k through high school) in and around Portland, Oregon. Learners choose between a huge diversity of classes (costing roughly $110 each), hang out with each other between class (as can their parents and siblings), and best of all, there’s no homework and teachers only give you feedback when you specifically request it. Lori talks about how Village Home works, why she started it, and where it (and she) are headed next.
