In this podcast, I talk about things to consider when deciding when and where to send your little geeks to school. Preschool, public school, private school and home schooling – all need to be investigated by visits, getting information from the sources, finding a good support network in the area and weighing the costs and benefits. I give my experiences and opinions on what to look for and consider! As always, this is just my opinion as another parent, but sometimes it helps to hear about experiences of other parents!

We’re starting a new podcast for those fans of Eureka and Warehouse 13 on SyFy – the EurekaVerse Podcast! Follow us on Twitter at @EurekaVerse!
