About this Event

Join us for the Eastern Idaho Homeschool Conference 2026: Called to Teach, a one-day gathering designed to encourage, equip, and connect homeschooling families across our region.

Whether you are just beginning to consider homeschooling or have been faithfully teaching your children for years, this conference is created with you in mind. Our desire is that you would leave the day strengthened in your calling, refreshed in your perspective, and equipped with practical tools for your homeschool journey.

Throughout the day, you will hear from experienced homeschool mothers who will share wisdom gained through real-life experience—both the joys and the challenges. Together, we will step back and look at the bigger picture of home education, while also diving into the everyday rhythms and practical needs of homeschooling.

You can expect:

• Encouraging keynote sessions focused on the long-term vision of home education
• Practical breakout sessions on topics like getting started, teaching multiple ages, high school preparation, and balancing home and homeschool
• A panel discussion with seasoned homeschool moms answering real questions
• Opportunities to connect with other homeschooling families in Eastern Idaho
• A homeschool resource area featuring local vendors and helpful tools

This conference is intentionally designed to be both encouraging and practical—a place where you can be reminded why you started and gain clarity for where you are going.

We are so excited to bring something like this to our area and to gather together as a community of families committed to teaching and discipling our children at home.
