Welcome to United Home School
It is the intent of this group to offer enrichment classes to ALL home school families in the Livingston County area.
We are an all volunteer group, where everyone helps the group run smoothly.
Teachers are paid for their services directly from the parents.
More like tutors, where they meet each week to discuss lessons and go over homework.
The student is responsible for doing all the work at home.
Again, we hold classes for enrichment purposes only.
UHS is not a school.
