Homeschool Horizons is having a fun challenge to see which is the top homeschooling province in Canada. Really, it is not an actual account of homeschoolers in each province, just an account of how many homeschoolers in each province have filled in the Homeschool Horizons Survey, but it's still fun. Along with giving you a chance to have your province more accurately represented in numbers, the survey also gives you a chance to help ensure that Homeschool Horizons will meet the needs of homeschoolers across Canada. They post updates of the results each week on their facebook page. Come join in the fun.
Here are how the provinces stand right now:
Ontario 30%
Alberta 21%
British Columbia 13%
Saskatchewan 10%
Newfoundland 8%
Nova Scotia 7%
Quebec 6%
Manitoa 4%
New Brunswick 3%
Prince Edward Island 0%
I can't believe that their are no Homeschoolers in Prince Edward Island! I know that is wrong. I also can't believe that the numbers are so low in some of the other provinces. I also know that it is not a true reflection of the numbers. People need to help get the word out and get these numbers up!
Why don't you help? If you are a homeschooling in Canada, make sure you fill in the survey so that you are counted. If you have friends that are homeschooling, point them to the form and stay after them until they, too, fill it in. Post about it on your facebook, on your blog, in your provincial forums or email lists. Talk about it at support group meetings. Get the word out! Let's get those numbers up and have some fun!
Which province do you think has the most homeschoolers? Where do you think your province falls?
