Hi from the Conciliotto family – a collection of humans and cats starring Ashar, who has been learning with us at home since Feb. 29, 2012. We haven’t looked back since that “Leap Day Leap” out of public school.

We consider ourselves secular unschoolers, or life learners, and the coolest thing about our untraditional approach (besides the ability to stay up til 2 a.m. and sleep late!) is that we’re ALL learning in ways we’d never have expected.
