For social stuff look into your local IS/Homeschool community. In my area these folks regularly schedule get togethers and field trips that the kids would otherwise miss out on. Also your school district office may be able to get you in touch with a parent support group for IS/Homeschool. A schedule is a great idea...also regular excercise. Just be aware that what would take an hour in a traditional classroom will only take 1/2 hour- 45 minutes at home. Our local HS community kids are VERY active in the theatre scene here...also they are excellent SPCA volunteers, etc.
Good luck Ellie, SG
