God bless you all!”
TRACY Burkholder, Local hostess

“Thank you for more good thoughts to chew on and for facilitating community-building at the local level. It’s tough on this end to fully communicate to you all how much you have affected our homeschools and our lives. We don’t take that lightly and do consider it a treasure.”

“Thanks for being so inspiring.

so easy to host a conference.”
katy aUSTIN, Local hostess

“Thank you for all of the help in creating a great atmosphere in my home! Your content through the podcasts and the retreats has given my friends and I meaningful discussions and tons of encouragement!”

We want local connections and face-to-face discussion to be easy for you pull together.

If you want to plan a local “teacher’s in-service day” for your own homeschool community at a local church, library, home, conference room, other retreat venue, or virtually – we’ll help you make it a day to remember.

Your local attendees will only pay $25 to attend (plus food costs if you do a catered meal), scoring a $13 discount off the regular price AND still receiving the replay recordings after the group invoice is paid.

Part of that $25 will reimburse your own hostess kit cost and we will invoice you for $22/person after you submit a photo of your registration sheet (provided in the kit). 

PLUS, as a hostess, you’ll be invited into the Local Leader’s Sistership Group with dozens of other local hostesses, several of whom have done events for 5 years now. 

Use this Homeschool Essentials Retreat as an excuse to gather homeschool moms together and foster meaningful connections and relationships. We make it easy, promise.

build community

Friendships need a shared direction. Choose connection
over small talk.

A day away is an investment in yourself as a homeschool mom and an investment in your local community.

“My group absolutely loved the content, the panel set up (vs. lecturing), discussing with friends in person, being able to watch it later without any internet stress. The way you present the material is really great – it’s conversational and encouraging and informative. We loved seeing you all together engaging with each other and being real. The discussion format is also meaningful, allowing us to narrate and process what we’re learning.”
–Charisse VanDerwerken

Frequently Asked Questions

“We just had our attention retreat – I really appreciated what a nice blend of intellectual foundation and practical implementation it had! ”
–Steph Shipley

The retreat will be broadcast live using Crowdcast. When you register, you will get email reminders with links 30 minutes before the sessions begin.

The replays will be available within your account inside the Sistership site or app in a fun and easy-to-navigate format after October 13. You can download them if needed so you can play them offline.

That’s awesome! You can order a packet with supplies for 10 more people for $10. You’ll get 10 more stickers, 10 more bookmarks, and 12 more name tags. 

To order an extra pack, just hit reply to your receipt email and ask. Hayley will invoice you and we’ll ship it First Class.

We can, but we will have to invoice you (separately) for $17 shipping. It actually costs $23+ to ship our kits internationally, but we want to do what we can to help your local group! 

A digital kit might be the best option for your group, but contact us if you have ideas for how we can help you make your retreat day special.

The retreat will begin with a sound check at 9:00am Pacific.

The first session begins at 9:30am Pacific. Each session is approximately 45-55 minutes. There are times scheduled for discussion between the four live sessions. And the final session will end at 3:45pm Pacific.

If you are attending live online, we welcome you to join the Zoom rooms to discuss the ideas with a small group of other homeschool moms!

It can be helpful to get people to commit ahead of time, but it’s not required. You make the best call for your local group. 

You will turn in your group registration form to us after your local event, so you only pay for people who were actually there. 

When you register for the Homeschool Essentials: CURRICULUM Retreat, you get:

  • FOUR live online workshops on Saturday, October 11 designed to inspire you and provide actionable steps to help you improve your homeschool practices & mindset.
  • Printable schedule of workshops and chats to help you plan your online retreat day.
  • Questions and prompts printables to help you apply and think through what you’ve learned.
  • Lifetime access to the replays.

This retreat is for homeschool moms who want more out of their school day than just checking boxes and getting it done.

It is for moms who want to learn and grow themselves while they are helping their children learn and grow.

It is for women who want to engage their hearts, minds, and actions in the pursuit of wisdom and truth. 

We hope that’s you. 

The physical hostess kit is $38.99 for early bird pricing and $46.99 from August 1 until we run out. It includes lifetime access to the replays and access to the local leaders space inside Sistership.

The digital hostess kit is $32.99 for early bird pricing and $39.99 after July 31st.

Your attendees will pay $25 (or more, if you need food reimbursement – at your discretion) at the door, and then you’ll pay us $22 per person. After your invoice is paid, we’ll send them access to the replays.

Hostesses who pay their invoice and all paid attendees will also get a discount code that can be used for other events or a Sophie subscription inside Sistership.

We offer a 30-day (after October 11), no-questions-asked refund policy. 

If, for whatever reason, the Scholé Sisters online retreat does not leave you refreshed and energized, let us know and we’ll give you your money back within 36 hours of receiving your email request.

The recordings – both video and audio – are available for download when you register so you can watch them offline if needed.
