About
While schools serve a critical role in our society, not every school is a good match for every child. Homeschooling can be an ideal academic alternative for gifted children, because it provides an education tailored to individual intellectual, social and emotional needs.
As the number of gifted homeschoolers has grown, so has the need for identifying resources and relevant information, as well as connecting families who share similar situations. Most homeschool organizations do not address giftedness, and school-based gifted programs are generally not geared for aiding the homeschooler. The Gifted Homeschoolers Forum (GHF) was originally founded to support gifted homeschoolers in California, although our resources are available for anyone who needs them.
The goals of GHF are:
- to link interested families with information and resources regarding educating a gifted child at home
- to provide gifted homeschoolers with the opportunity to network and exchange ideas and resources
- to increase awareness of homeschooling as a viable educational alternative for gifted children
- to advocate for gifted homeschoolers
- to network with other education-related entities
