Though there are many benefits, the four primary benefits that most families focus on are:
TESTING
Our association is able to provide nationally recognized testing for a reasonable price. As the association is staffed by volunteers, we currently only need to charge $25.00 per student.
You must belong to the association in order to participate in testing.

FELLOWSHIP
Others may refer to this as socialization. However, in the Christian community getting together is beyond social – it’s spiritual!
COMMUNICATION
Membership in the association provides an opportunity to be part of the newsletter and email distribution. Many of the assocation members are also members of the Home School Legal Defense Association which looks out for homeschool interests at both the national and state government levels. Hence, through the association you can find other likeminded believers seeking to equip their children at home through Care Groups, Co-ops, Field Trips, Association events, etc.
GRADUATION
We have been blessed to offer the homeschool community a full cap and gown commencement ceremony for our graduating seniors. We consider our commencement exercises to be a service of praise to God for what He has done in our children’s lives and a service of honor to the students and their accomplishments by God’s grace. Unless you are new to the area, you must be a member before September 30th of the school year in order to participate in the spring graduation. There is a $90.00 graduation fee. The fee will be reduced by $30.00 for each consecutive year a family has been a member prior to the current school year.
MORE!
We would love to offer more opportunities for enrichment and fellowship but this is completely determined by the number of members willing to volunteer their time and energy to make these events happen. Please contact us at info@csrahea.org if you would like more information about how to volunteer with the HEA.
