Endorsement From Tina Farewell:
If
you fear high school is an overwhelming task, Barbara Mesh is sure to
lighten your burden! Barbara Mesh, wife, mother, and veteran home
educator, has a background of teaching and guidance counseling. Her
wisdom, understanding, and knowledge guides home educators and their
students to prudent choices through the high school years.Mrs.
Mesh encourages parents and teens to think “outside the box,” equipping
them to make well-informed decisions about educational philosophy,
curriculum, and lifestyle. She helps them build transcripts from their
real life educational experiences, academics, talents, and interests.Whether
a teen’s educational experience has been accomplished through
traditional textbooks or unit studies, with dual enrollment or
self-designed classes, Barb’s assistance will result in a transcript
written in the universal language of the traditional box—the language
“the system” understands.Help
young adults embrace activities to discover and develop their
particular strengths and passions instead of traveling on the assembly
line of “school at home.”You and your teens will be set free in the process!

Frequently Asked Questions About The Workshop:
Are the resource materials available for purchase if one can not attend the workshop?
Unfortunately, due to copyright issues, workshop materials are only available to registered attendants.
May two moms come as a couple and share the Resource Notebook?
The workshop fees have been kept very reasonably priced; therefore, two friends may not attend as a couple. In addition to the full day presentation, each family takes home a 75+ page notebook which will encourage participants to feel confident they received a valuable service and product. If not knowing Barbara is part of the hesitation to register, please visit her web site and read the feedback others have given after hearing her give seminar presentations at “district fairs”, participating in a full day workshop or experiencing a private consultation.
What should I bring on the day of the class?
Please plan to bring a large, 3-ring binder to hold the workshop materials and a sack lunch or plan to eat out at a nearby fast food establishment.
What’s the class cancellation policy?
The workshop has a requirement of 10 minimum pre paid registrations. If this number is not met by the stated deadline,the workshop will be cancelled and a full refund will be given to each participant.
May our teen sit-in on this workshop?
Absolutely! We encourage it! It helps teens to hear information about their education from a third party which affirms what they have been thinking and what their parents have been suggesting. It also helps parents to be open to what their child has been considering. It encourages the students to take more responsibility and ownership for their education by partnering with their parents and sharing in the decision making. Barb will be directly addressing the teens throughout the day as she goes through the material.

Benefits of Attending Barb's
Seminar:
"To
any parent who is home schooling or considering home schooling their child for
High School, I think this seminar should be mandatory!
Barbara covers a multitude of topics essential to navigate legal
issues, curricula and accountability, transcripts and choosing
colleges. I discovered I didn't know as much as I thought I did! The seminar
brought into focus a path to college education from a home school back ground,
as well as testing rules and requirements sought by some colleges. A
wonderful, purposeful and eye opening education. It was well worth five
times the price I paid! The substantial information she hands out is an enormous
help and guide. I feel more comfortable and confident after this seminar. I
have an absolute clear direction aimed at colleges for my daughters career
choice. In addition, I know Barbara is there for private consultations if I ever
need more assistance! If
you have teenagers ........you'll be so glad you attended! I am. Thank you
Barbara for sharing your knowledge!!"
