Pray for upcoming elections and the impact they may have on homeschooling,
Pray for your state’s homeschool organization and its leaders.
Pray for your elected officials to recognize that the education of children is the responsibility of the parents, not that of the nation,
Pray for your own family—your homeschooling journey and the Lord’s guidance as you take that journey, your relationships with one another, your own children and their futures, as well as seeking ways your family can minister to others,

Alabama Homeschool Spelling Bee
2026-01-31 13:00 - 15:00 | Faulkner University – Birmingham Campus, Southlake Parkway, Birmingham, Alabama, 35244, United States
Homeschool Alabama has registered with Scripps organization so homeschoolers in Alabama from grades K-8 will have a way to participate in the national spelling bee. The winner of this state homeschool spelling bee will move on to the Alabama state spelling bee in Birmingham in March. A student must be registered through a school or organization that is enrolled with Scripps.
The Scripps organization made a few changes this year. The main one that affects us is that there is no longer an online testing option, so there will be no preliminary bee this year. All students who register with Homeschool Alabama will participate in the in-person bee in Birmingham.
Please be aware that the target audience for the spelling bee is grades 4-8; there is no minimum grade for participation in the program. All participating students should be in grade 8 or below.
Please register your students by Jan 15th
After you register you will receive an email with word lists to study so the earlier you register, the better for your student.
Are you a member of Homeschool Alabama? Be sure to include your discount code! Want to join Homeschool Alabama today? Visit HomeschoolAL.org for more details, and check with Essential for an Active School membership code.
COST: $25/family for student registration – no cost to attend and observe!

BHC Valentine's Day Party 2026
2026-02-13 13:00 - 15:00 | Veteran’s Park, 4800 Valleydale Road, Hoover, AL, 35242, United States
Join us for a valentine’s day swap and park day for the Birmingham homeschool community!
Get creative with your valentine boxes. There will be prizes awarded for the most creative ones! Please know that a simple box is fine for collecting a ton of greetings – no reason to not come due to lack of time to create a special box.
Valentine boxes should be dropped off by 1:45 so that they are ready for valentine delivery and judging. Valentines may be delivered any time between 2:00-2:45. Please prepare at least 50 valentines to deliver! If you want to create more, that’s fine; we’ve found that 50 is about right in order to have plenty to give out.
Lawn chairs and picnic blankets are encouraged for visiting in the open area at this park. And, there is a large field that is perfect for soccer or football.
If you win a prize for your valentine box, don’t forget to find a BHC representative to get a goody from our prize box.
SCHEDULE
1pm – Arrival and place boxes in designated area for your student’s grade or age level.
1:45pm – Box Judging Begins
2pm – Valentine Swap Begins
2:45pm – Pick up boxes and clean up park for community service

Special thanks to Essential Church School for sponsoring and hosting this community wide event!
