Class Dismissed independent film

Hi moms, Would you be interested in watching this new independent film together sometime this winter/spring? You can view it here: http://classdismissedmovie.com/about-the-film/ We need to pay $75 for the private viewing fee and have somewhere to watch it with a projector.

Local tutor

Kristin Heimer is a local tutor and will have some tutoring openings for local students this winter, and thought there might be some homeschoolers who would be interested in a little extra help of that sort for their kids. All her information can be found at her website: http://mccooktutor.weebly.com/ Kristin said even though her listed hours are after school, for homeschoolers anytime after 10 a.m. weekdays could easily be worked out. She has an associate's degree in Bible.
