Homeschool Capitol Day
Kansas homeschool families are invited to join us at the Capitol for the annual Homeschool Capitol Day on Thursday, Feb. 6, beginning at 10 a.m.
It is sponsored by the Christian Home Education Coalition of Kansas (CHECK).
Highlights of your Capitol Day field trip can include:
- Helping distribute sweet treats and homeschool fact sheets to legislators
- Meeting personally with your own state legislators (make appointment prior)
- Touring the Capitol and the Dome
- Observing the legislature in action
- Learning from legislators and others about how Kansas government works
Building a positive relationship with our state legislators will help keep homeschools thriving in Kansas. Meeting up for Homeschool Capitol Day provides the encouraging presence of other homeschool families as well as many firsthand educational experiences!

Is there a suggested age for the kids at this event?
You know your children best, but please note there will be a lot of walking and talking with legislators at the event. For this reason, we recommend leaving toddlers & preschoolers at home.
