The original, grassroots Disneyschooling group formed in 2005. We planned our first meet ups and coined the terms “Annual Homeschool Day at Disneyland” and “Not Back To School Day.”
Some for-profit businesses may have copied our ideas and our name. We’re flattered, but surely they should use their own name, ideas
and dates instead of trying to make a profit on ours.
Q. Who came up with this idea?
A. The idea for a fun day at the theme park was suggested by our homeschooled teens. A discussion ensued on an email loop, and it happened!
Q. Who is invited?
A. All homeschoolers and those attending alternative schools (you get to decide if that description fits!). All ages! Parents, Kids, Grandparents, Friends…! We also welcome those who are not using alternative means of education, but do SUPPORT those alternatives!
Q. Do I have to sign up or join something to attend?
A. No. All you have to do is get yourself a ticket and go to the theme park!
Q. Where can I buy tickets?
A. We do not have tickets to sell you. You will be responsible for obtaining your own tickets into the theme park. To purchase tickets to the theme park, visit Disneyland.com. They do not sell Homeschool Day tickets or offer a discount for this day. You will need to purchase a regular ticket into the park. Annual passports and multi day passes are the best buys. All annual passports are valid on these dates!
Q. Do I have to wear Tie-Dye?
A. Certainly not, but you might have more fun if you do! Making your own tie dye shirt is a lot of fun! Make it an art & science project and wear your unique design with pride!
Q. Is this event sponsored by or affiliated with Disney?
A. No, this event is not sponsored by or affiliated with Disney or Disneyland.
Q. So, who does sponsor the event?
A. We have lots of sponsors, that is, groups that have helped to get this event off the ground and get it publicized. But if you want to know who “owns” this event or “runs” it, just look in the mirror! It belongs to all of us! If your group would like to help publicize the event, join the DisneySchooling Loop and tell us about it!
Q. Who else is going?
A. Last year, hundreds of people attended! You can join the DisneySchooling Loop to chat with others who might be attending.
Q. Will there be a group photo?
A. Yes! We are a huge crowd, and we don’t want to block the pathways for others, so we’ll have one designated photographer take a photo and we’ll post it online for everyone to download. If we can get a theme park photographer there too, you will be able to purchase a hard copy of the photo at the park.
Q. I have an idea for a fun activity to go with this, how can I spread the word?
A. Join the DisneySchooling Loop and post it there!
Q. Can I copy this page and post it to our group website and/or loops?
A. Yes, please spread the word!
This authentic group does not charge you an extra fee or require membership to attend! Please join us for one or both of our annual events!
