I’m sorry I haven’t posted program updates in a LONG time … The covid-choas kept changing program plans so we thought we’d wait to post updates til’ things calmed down. I’m not sure when that will be though so I’m just gonna post what we have been up to so far this year. Even with the chaos – 2021 has been fun! Here’s some of the pics taken during covid closings / forced family time AND our adventures with homeschool friendsย / small Mi Families groups.ย Scroll to the end to see plans for future Mi Families groups and programs:

Need homeschool help? Looking for co-ops? Seeking a tutor? Email Christi@MiFamilies.com
If you made it through all that ~ Congrats ๐ You win! I’m not sure what you win, but I hope you win a great Back2School season, whether that is in a traditional classroom or homeschool setting.ย Need any homeschool help or looking for co-op? Seeking a tutor or developmental services? Email me at Christi@MiFamilies.com
ALSO email me if you’d like updates as Mi Families begins to build up our post covid-crisis classes.ย These classes will be covid cautious (some indoors some outside). Most of the fall programs are full, but there are a couple tutor time spaces available and winter programs will be posted around the holidays and start right after new years. 2022 is on the way and so are some great opportunities for education through recreation, hands on and feet in activities, field trips and other EDventures!
