Baltimore Schedule of Events
All times, speakers, and events are subject to change
| As we re-orient our focus to be more homeschooling specific, the 2010 NACHE seminar will be smaller than our typical conference. Talks and workshops will occur on Saturday the 19th, and there will not be an exhibitors hall for this year. NACHE 2011 will see a full house of vendors, and an inspiring and resourceful speaker line up. |
