Providence Home School Fellowship is a Pine Mountain-based homeschool co-op offering classes taught by moms like PE, cooking, art, geography, choir, astronomy, anatomy, agriculture and basic skills for preschool ages. Community workers like the fire department come in and talk to the kids. The co-op also coordinates a Christmas program and an end of the year program, and a thanksgiving feast.
Anna is experienced at homeschooling and is happy to be a resource for other parents. Another resource is the Blount County Homeschoolers FB group.
