Here are a few places to try - I've had luck with all four:

eBay
half.com
amazon.com
www.vegsource.com

I did a google search for used homeschooling supplies and came up with...

Princess:

In North Carolina, are there any requirements that your home schooled children must attend so many hours per day in the public system for physical education and sport? How does that work?

Thanks for the info hun!

NC is a relativly easy state to Home Educate in, we just have to send a notice of intent and a yearly test, and attendance record (which IMO is 365 - my children never go a day without learning something).

There is a cool website for American laws on Home Educating, makes sense of the legalease (and will offer legal help as needed which you do need to join for)

State by state

Just click on the state then read up what the options/laws are.
