Overview & How to Register

 

Watch for new information on BHEA's in-person Fall 2021 Enrichment Program coming soon!

What is the Enrichment Program? The BHEA Enrichment Program is literally designed to enrich the education that each family provides for their children at home. We are not here to educate your children for you, but to partner with you as you do so. You, the parents, are responsible for your students, their education, and their behavior. You are not required to take part in the Enrichment program, either by state law or by any requirement of your membership with BHEA. Roughly one-half of our membership takes part in Enrichment sessions, so there is no pressure.

If you’re considering participating in sessions for the 2021-2022 school year, please read the following information carefully as it highlights changes to the program.

  • We will be meeting in person.
  • Masks will be required. 

Sessions are set to begin: 

  • Monday, August 17th for High School and Middle School
  • Wednesday, August 26th for Elementary and Middle School

There will be NO lunch hour. But there is a park right down the street where anyone who wants to can meet up after we are done for the day! 

There will be 3 session times:

  • Monday (HS/MS) - 9am, 10:30am and 12pm
  • Wednesday (Elem/MS) - 9am, 10am, 11am

Can I drop my kids off at BHEA's Enrichment Program? No, not unless your child is over 16, can drive him/herself, and meets other requirements. 

Who is involved in Enrichment and how do they qualify? The BHEA Enrichment Program is open to all BHEA members in good standing. 

When does the Enrichment program occur? Our Enrichment program consists of 10 to 14 week semesters in both Fall and Spring. 

How much does this cost? There is typically an Enrichment Program Registration Fee of $50 per family, plus fees that go to the individual instructor. Each semester brings slightly different offerings, but you can get a general idea of the pricing structure by viewing current session listings. 

What sessions are being offered this year? We are currently taking submissions from those of you returning members who would like to instruct in the fall. We will release the final Fall session schedule as soon as we have it put together. For reference, you can find the listing of Spring 2021 sessions here, but do realize there are different offerings every semester.  

When can I register for the Enrichment Program? You may register for the Enrichment Program during the membership joining and renewing cycle, usually beginning in May. 

How to sign up for sessions

We will release this information soon. 

Still have questions? We understand! So do we! Our activities have been greatly affected by the pandemic and it has been quite a challenge to try to anticipate what will work and when. Please know that we are doing the best we can and we really do appreciate your patience as we try to navigate the changing conditions. Email us at e[email protected].
