All homeschooling families who agree to abide by our policies of tolerance, confidentiality, and participation are invited to join TEACH. Most of our members reside in the Berkeley/Charleston/Dorchester tri-county area, and most of our activities take place within the tri-county area.

Membership highlights:

• Membership includes access to field trips and activities, our members-only website, our on-line Activities Calendar, and participation in the TEACH Support e-mail discussion loop.

• Our principal manner of communication is through the Internet. .

• The membership fee for those applying for the 2007-2008 School Year will be $10.00 per family for new members and $8.00 for returning members. Membership fees are non-refundable. The calendar year runs from August 1 to July 31.

• Members must conduct one field trip or activity per year. Field trips may be academic in nature such as a dissection lab, a walking tour of historical Charleston, or a trip to the museum. Social activities like group ice-skating, bowling, or a picnic are also acceptable. An Activity Coordinator is available to help with ideas for activities.

• Tolerance of all members' religious practices and homeschooling styles is a cornerstone of TEACH. Support is conducted in a confidential atmosphere.
