Kevin Boden
HSLDA
Kevin and his wife, Wendi, began homeschooling in 2008 when their oldest child was in first grade. Now, many years later, they continue to educate all their children at home. Kevin graduated from Wheaton College and received his J.D. from Seattle University. Prior to joining HSLDA, Kevin served on active duty in the U.S. Air Force as a Judge Advocate, which allowed him and Wendi to homeschool in three different countries and five states. As an HSLDA Staff Attorney, Kevin serves as the primary contact for members in 12 states, including Colorado. He is passionate about the freedom to homeschool and the blessings of being a dad.
Speaker Sessions
Everything In Its Time: Busyness, Rest, and Home Education
(Family Discipleship)
Resting and homeschooling may feel like polar opposites. In the rush of everyday life, we can forget that busyness doesn’t equal learning, that rest doesn’t equal laziness, and that learning doesn’t equal books. We all need to be reminded to guard the quiet moments of the day and focus on the most important things. In this session, Kevin looks at the significance of rest for the entire family.
The Hostility Against Homeschooling
(Biblical Worldview)
The battle to protect a parent’s freedom to educate their child has entered a new phase. A group seeking to throttle the rights of parents has written a ‘model bill’ detailing restrictions on homeschooling they would like every state to adopt. Widespread publicity of a handful of tragic child abuse cases gives this group emotionally gripping talking points while allowing them to ignore what the research about child abuse says. In this presentation, we will analyze the model bill exposing the hostile worldview on which it is based. We are eager to inform and equip families to respond quickly and knowledgeably.
Join thousands of other homeschoolers this June 12-14th at the Rocky Mountain Homeschool Conference. Expect to have a lot of fun and fellowship with other homeschool families, find great deals on curriculum, and get practical encouragement for your homeschooling at our workshops and general sessions!
