Who is SCHEF?
We are Slidell Christian Home Educators Fellowship (SCHEF). We are a homeschool group located in Southeast Louisiana serving homeschool families in Slidell and the surrounding areas. We are dedicated to Christ and therefore to our families & one another. SCHEF is a Christian organization, the members of which are like-minded Christian home educating families dedicated to observing the Biblical commands of Deuteronomy 6:4-10, Proverbs 22:6, and Ephesians 6:4. SCHEF is not a church nor is this organization meant to replace the ministry of the local church to the home education family.
Additionally, we support one another by overseeing clubs, teaching, volunteering for Field Day, etc. SCHEF works and our kids have a great time because each family is encouraged to use their talents to share with the rest of the group. Below is a list, (certainly not exhaustive), of things we offer to the members of our group. It's easy to see how our children truly have a well rounded education when participating in SCHEF & we as parents still have contact with the rest of the world. Some people worry homeschool groups won't have enough social interaction, however, with SCHEF you can be as active and social as your family's homeschool journey allows. Homeschooling is a full time job with peculiar challenges: in short you must make time to spend with like minded individuals. When your students participate in weekly, bi weekly, or monthly activities you get to know everyone and begin to crave spending time with your friends just as much as your children do.

SCHEF has been in existence for over 30 years. Join us and find out why. Homeschooling is often a rough road, but made easier and pleasant when shared with friends. We encourage one another, help one another, and use whatever talents the Lord gave us to serve one another. This support has been the driving force to help us persevere on our homeschool journey.
