Texas anyone?

I live in Houston, and my in-laws are in the mid-cities (the small cities between Ft. Worth and Dallas). So I’m not an expert, but somewhat familiar. What kind of info are you looking for?

We live in the Sachse/Wylie/Garland area, and we love it there.  There are lots of different homeschool groups in the area.  There’s probably something for everyone; it just depends on what you are looking for.  I will link a few that I’m familiar with:

• PEACH:  https://peachonline.org/content.aspx?sl=1102633978
• REACH:  http://reachco-op.com/
• REACH Rockwall (my co-op):  https://www.reachrockwall.org/
• Green Roof:  http://greenroofcoop.com/
• CERC (bookstore and classes):  https://www.cerconline.org/
• SELAH (support group):   https://selahntx.com/
• RHSA (support group):  http://rhsa.org/

All of those links are groups that would be within reasonable distance from Frisco, but I’m sure there are many groups within Frisco proper. There are also MANY Classical Conversations groups around.

Texas is very homeschool friendly.  I’ve been homeschooling for over 20 years and I don’t think I’ve ever had a negative comment from anyone.  My son had speech therapy through the local school district and they were never anything but wonderful to us.  In short, I’m pretty sure there’s not a better state in which to homeschool.

People here are very friendly.  We lived in Colorado for a few years, and were amazed by the difference in the people there.  They just weren’t friendly at all compared to what we were used to.

In our area, people are quite conservative.  Austin is a different story.  Austin is beautiful and I love it, but it definitely has a different vibe. Not bad, just different.  If that’s what you’re looking for, you should certainly consider Austin.

There are churches everywhere.  We go to a Reformed Baptist church in Wylie.

I hope that answers some of your questions.  Let me know if you’d like to know something specific.
