ABOUT US

 

     Houston Homeschoolers Cooperative (HHC) is a support and advocacy group for families of homeschoolers in the Greater Houston area.  Our mission is to assist families with their efforts to provide quality education in the home learning environment.

​

• To be legal in Texas:

• Homeschooling must be done in a bona fide manner, utilize a written or visual curriculum,  and cover the five specific topics of grammar, reading, spelling, mathematics, and good citizenship.

• Parents/guardians must take responsibility for the actual education of his/her child but can delegate the instruction and/or tutoring to others.
