My province requires that I register with a school board. Is there a list of these boards?
CHER has a list of provincial boards (Alberta Home School Boards, British Columbia Home School Boards) on our website. You have a choice as to which board you register with. Some boards will match your family's needs better than others. It is a good practice to write out your philosophy of education and make a list of what you are looking for
