New! NDHSA Membership
June 15, 2006
Dear Home School Families and Friends,
The NDHSA Board of Directors has decided to increase the activity and influence of the NDHSA by instituting fee-based memberships beginning in June of 2006. Research into the value of memberships has revealed that: (1) there is no longer any legal rationale to not have membership, (2) membership creates a more focused, cohesive and dynamic organization, (3) 70% of NDHSA families support the idea of membership, (4) many state and local homeschool organizations have membership, (5) membership will allow the NDHSA to increase its educational services, legislative engagement and general outreach activities to effectively meet the cultural challenges anticipated, and (6) provide a more stable financial basis for NDHSA operations.
Member Benefits
Member benefits include the newsletter and e-newsletter; 10% annual convention registration discount; 10% discount on information packets; HSLDA group discount; 25% advertising discount to home school family businesses for newsletter, e-newsletter, and website ads; helping continue the general services and outreach activities of the NDHSA toward growing home education in North Dakota.
Families not choosing membership may still choose to be on the NDHSA mailing list and receive the legislative action alerts at no cost.
