Some Wikipedians have formed a project to better organise information in articles related to Homeschooling. If you would like to help, please enquire on the talk page. New members are welcome to join, and update the to-do list. The associated talk page serves as a forum for related collaboration of articles within the project's scope.

Scope
This WikiProject's scope includes anything that has to do with homeschooling. Articles within this project's scope are assessed by quality and importance boundaries, when the WikiProject Homeschooling template is placed on those articles.
- The importance scale will assess articles based upon their importance as it relates to the WikiProject. For example, an article about a person who was or is homeschooled would be within this project's "scope", but it would not be as high on the importance scale as the Homeschooling article itself.
- The quality scale determines the article's quality, how well it is written, and the length of the article, regardless of how it is ranked on the importance scale. In the event that the article is within the scope of multiple WikiProjects, the article should usually recieve the quality assessment grade by all of the WikiProjects.
Goals
General goals
- To coordinate and improve articles related to Homeschooling.
- To foster collaboration between participants of this project.
- To establish appropriate linkages with WikiProject Education and WikiProject Alternative education.
- To work collaboratively with other wikiprojects in order to achieve joint goals.
Specific goals
- Get Homeschooling to GA.
- Keep all articles assessed for importance and quality.
- Get Tim Tebow to GA.
Newsroom
The newsroom publishes our project's monthly newsletter, which contains information on our project, members, and collaboration information.
Collaboration
The Collaboration department seeks to identify particular articles that would benefit from a significant collaborative effort. Every month, a single article is selected as the focus, and the project attempts to improve it, potentially to featured article standards. Any articles dealing with some aspect of Homeschooling are eligible, and everyone is invited to nominate articles.
