Group Details:

WATCH exists to facilitate networking for homeschooling families in northernmost Minnesota.

Members who have a heart to network and serve others in this capacity initiate and run activities. We have a website for members to post questions and answers, legislative issues, materials to buy and sell, educational opportunities, enrichment classes, and other activities. We currently have a geography club and history club that meet once a month during the school season, soccer in the fall, skating and ski/snowboard day in the winter, and a homeschool tournament day and graduation in the spring.

We encourage our members to organize various activities of interest to their family. Our diverse group holds the possibility for beneficial and excellent networking.
