Enrichment Classes

Brownsville Homeschool Association offers Enrichment classes on Monday's at the Central Linn District Office in a classroom setting. We have three classes; K-3rd Grade, 4th-7th Grade and 8th-12th Grade. We begin at 8:45AM and finish at 1PM.

We offer:
Science (All grades)
History (All grades)
Sign Language (All grades)
Physical Eduction (All grades)
Creative Writing (4th-12th grades)

Please check below for an explanation of each class

Enrichment Class Explanation

Science--Science is broken into three groups K-3rd Grade, 4th-7th Grade and 8th-12th Grade--all of which study the same subject, just on different learning levels. There are hands on experiments and a great opportunity for kids to do what you don't do in your home school program! We are planning to continue the microscope unit and move into Marine Biology. Science for K-3rd & 4th -7th is taught by Felicia Molahan and 8th-12th is taught by Dana Morehead.

History--History is broken into three groups K-3rd Grade and 4th-7th Grade and 8th-12th Grade. All classes study the same subject, just on different learning levels. We use many resources for history, including books, videos, visuals, speakers, and stories. We will continue with Native American History and then work in the early 1900's. History for K-3rd & 4th -7th is taught by Felicia Molohan and 8th-12th is taught by Shawn Garrett.
Sign Language--We are fortunate to have Dana Morehead who is very fluent in Sign Language to teach our kids. She has done a lot of interpreting, and what a great way for your kids to get a 2nd language.

PE--Physical Education is offered for all age groups, and split into three groups, K-3rd, 4th-7th and 8th-12th. A great way for your home schooled student to join in group activities

PE is taught by Shawn Garrett and Dana Morehead

Creative Writing-Creative Writing is broken into two groups. The High School Class and the advanced Middle School class are both taught by Shawn Garrett. Jennifer Ewing teaches more of the fundamentals to the new writers in 4-7th grade. Attention is given to creative writing, techniques and reports.

Registration forms for Home School Group

A district transfer form is required at the end of the 2nd week you preview classes if you are not currently in the Central Linn School District. We do not turn in registration forms for two weeks...but do require them to be turned in when you preview classes. The district transfer form has to be renewed each year.

Forms will be given to you after the first class, providing you have decided to return. An emergency card is required the first day of class, regardless if you plan to stay in the program or not. We need to know allergies, emergency contacts, etc.

State Testing Requirements

Students in home schooling need to be tested by August 15th following the completion of 3rd, 5th, 8th and 10th Grades. Results are due to LBL ESD by September 30th of the indicated test year.

Our own Dana Giles is a state certified Home School Tester and although she has moved, she is still willing to test our kids in her home in Eugene, or if a group is ready to test, she can schedule a date & time in Brownsville!

She can be reached for you testing needs

Rates are as follows for basic testing:

Individuals $50.00

*Basic Testing includes tests required by ESD: Vocabulary, Comprehension, Language Mechanics, Language Expression, Math Computation, Math Concepts and Math Applications.

Additional testing categories of Spelling, Study Skills, Science & Social Studies can be added for a fee of $20.00. The ESD does not require test scores in these categories but some families find it helpful for monitoring their children's progress.

Any questions? Please contact Dana Giles at danddgiles@hotmail.com or call her at home at 541-343-3446
