Stop by our Open House to browse and see all the materials we have for you and your students. Our library is currently housed in an indoor storage space off Hwy. 280 in Chelsea. Please park behind Building B and enter through the back door. Our librarian will be available to help you find specific materials regarding your particular subject matter. We are more than a literature library, there is curriculum, games, printables. You have to see it to believe it! (Children are not encouraged to attend. The space is small and the area is not kid-friendly.)

Essential Church School supports and sponsors the activities and events of Birmingham Homeschoolers Community. BHC is a place where homeschool families from around the city can connect for field trips, parties, classes, fun, and relationships. Please join us for this special day of celebrating the beginning of another school year! It is like a family reunion with "potluck" snack and drinks. Bring a lawn chair and picnic blanket. Dress for playtime in the creek and/or field day activities in the large field. Students of all ages will be there, and teens are welcome to come and meet new friends. We will meet at 1:30 in the field to take a group school photo. Look for an Essential poster. See you there!
