  • Please post advertisements not related to homeschooling, parenting or education on the Google Group. This includes self-promotion, etsy stores and small businesses etc.

  • Note: Posting on our Google Group makes it easier for everyone to follow your discussion thread and all advice shared is archived for future benefit insha’Allah. For these reasons, we prefer members to post the following on the Google Group, instead of Telegram: 

    • Non-urgent homeschooling or parenting questions

    • Curriculum questions and recommendations 

 

We are a support group and we want everyone to feel welcome. 

• Be kind and respectful towards different homeschooling styles, philosophies, practices of Islam and personal beliefs.

• All events are open to the family, except if indicated sisters-only.

 

Be an active and accountable group member.

• When circumstance allows, give back to the group in ways that are manageable for you.

• We understand life happens — please communicate when you can no longer fulfill a commitment.

 

Lastly, a note about our EBMH volunteers:

• Be mindful that all our programming and resources are organized by homeschooling moms in their personal time. If there is an activity or service you would like to see in the group, please first consider if you are able to help with the endeavor.

• Kindly email your ideas, suggestions or questions to eastbay.mhs@gmail.com. And please allow up to 3 business days for a response.
