a package with information about homeschooling in PEI and some useful resources. Those new to homeschooling will receive a special beginners package.
a complimentary subscription to the newsletter KIT

We would like to invite all PEI homeschooling familes to become members of PEICHE, to support our efforts, and to get involved in whatever capacity seems appropriate to you.

Terms of Agreement

We remind you that PEICHE does not presume to speak for, or represent, any PEI Homeschoolers individually, or as a group. However,as the need arises members of the Board will be available to speak to the media about homeschooling matters. Also as issues arise in the provincial legislature, PEICHE will inform members, so that they will be able to take whatever action they feel to be a appropriate. This is particularly important with the changes to the School Act which are still being worked into regulations.

The publication of KIT comes under the umbrella of PEICHE. Member families will receive their subscription at no charge. Families who do not wish to be members, but who do wish to participate in Island homeschool events, may still subscribe to the newsletter alone and keep themselves up-to-date. We will also continue to send e-mail notices about events as they come up. Membership fees have been set at $20.00 per family for one year. Fees are due in January, renewable annually. After September of the year, memership will be $10.00 for that year, or $25.00 to cover the upcoming year and the balance of the current year.
