WHY Join YEAH? and WHY Continue my YEAH membership even when we're not utilizing YEAH's services this year?
YEAH membership entitles your family to receive discounted rates for workshops, events and registration (typical savings of $2.00 to $15.00 person for workshops, PLAN testing, skiing and other events.)
YEAH Academy membership provides priority status for registration for courses at The Academy and may make the difference if a student is able to enroll in a desired class.
Continuous YEAH membership (without lapses) accumulate and "count" when it matters for participation in member-only events such as YEAH Commencement Ceremony and placement in high-demand Academy courses.
YEAH membership fees cover expenses for services enjoyed by all: website management; sponsorship of events; workshops; college fairs; testing services; etc. services that are open to and enjoyed by all home educators.
