Homeschool Hookup Park Days

Homeschool Hookup park days allow local homeschoolers to meet from 1-4 p.m. Friday afternoons at different parks throughout the Kansas City metro area. 

Location is typically determined on a weekly basis. Journey Bible Church in Olathe is the default location during the winter season or inclement weather. Scroll down to the calendar at the bottom of this page for more information.

From “The Homeschool Hookup (KC Metro Christian Group)” on Facebook:

“We are a Christian homeschool support group, believing Jesus Christ is the way, truth and light. Our purpose is for homeschooling parents to connect with other homeschooling families, ask questions, get advice, and encouragement.”

Families interested in joining will need to have a Facebook account and answer the Homeschool Hookup group’s membership questions. If you do not have a Facebook account, please contact us.

Many thanks to Jennifer Simmons on the MPE Board for helping run the group and arrange these park days!

Park Days are added as they are scheduled, which may be the day before. Please check back on Friday mornings for the latest meetup. Contact the MPE Office with any questions.
