What is the purpose of the Education Options Expo?

The purpose of the Education Options Expo is to empower parents by introducing them to learning options that respect the needs of their children and maximizes their potential, self-motivation, self-reliance, and self-knowledge; ultimately, aiming for peace of mind that results from self-satisfaction knowing they made the effort to become the best which they are capable.


What is the Education Options Expo?


The Education Options Expo is an educational forum where parents of PreK12 students meet world leaders in education and empowered learning. The presentations will cover hot topics like: self-directed learning centers, apprenticeships, holistic schools, journalism school, homeschooling, deschooling, democratic schools, hip-hop education, self-directed curricula, and threat prevention tactics.

Also, you will meet other parents with children and similar questions that you have, which will be a great way to build positive friendships and playgroups benefiting your child's life in the short-term and long-term.


The Respectful Learning Revolution has begun and will emphasize learner-centered learning, as opposed to outdated, mass schooling factory model which uses a "one size fits all" philosophy dating back to the 19th century.

You are part of a large and very exciting movement. After all, 2015 is the fastest changing year in all of human history, and 2016 looks like it will move even quicker.

If you are reading this, your child has a chance to lead their field in the coming years, regardless if they are aged 5, 10, or 15.


Who will be there?

Attendees of the Expo include:  founders of schools, leaders of homeschooling groups, experienced teachers, authors, active community members and educational visionaries (innovators/entrepreneurs), local media, and parents.

Exhibitors of the Expo include representatives of: private PreK12 schools, homeschooling, unschooling, and educational and media groups.

4th Education Options Expo Presentations include:



Come meet the following schools, academies, and educational groups that will exhibit at the 2016 Education Options Expo are:

Acton Academy
Wearable Art Academy

Homeschool Association of California

Why was the Expo created?

We started this event because the future is changing faster than ever before in history and your child deserves to excel in it.  The way to ensure this happens it to empower them with an education that is up-to-date, respectful, and prepares them for the incredible changes which occur more rapidly with every day. 

Parents are demanding new and better methods of learning which tap into, and maximize, the potential of their child. So it's up to each individual and community around the Bay Area to take leadership and begin exploring real educational options.  The Education Options Expo will introduce you to schools and educational models that are designed to accelerate in your child's learning and success journey.

I'm excited.  What do I do now?
