This coming Monday, September 29, homeschool parents will be able to pick up a complimentary tall size (12 fl. oz.) cup of Pike Place Roast from Starbucks.
This promotion is part of Starbucks “Great Start for Great Teachers” promotion, and is now open to all teachers.
HSLDA intervened when we were alerted that homeschool parents were not included in the promotion.
We are pleased that Starbucks is recognizing the contribution of homeschool parents by extending their program to us.
In order to pick up your free cup of Pike Place Roast you will need to present evidence that you are a homeschooler.
Any one item on the following list should be accepted by Starbucks:
- Home School Legal Defense Association membership card.
- Membership card from a state homeschooling organization.
- Notification from a school district or state government recognizing compliance with compulsory attendance.
- Paperwork submitted showing intent to establish a homeschool program.
- Paperwork showing the establishment of a private school.
If you don’t have one of the items on this list be creative and try to provide other proof of homeschooling.
Please note: the final decision about whether to accept proof of homeschooling resides with Starbucks.
We hope you choose to take advantage of this offer.
To print out additional copies of your membership card, visit the online HSLDA membership services page.

I’m surprised that Starbucks would support a group that does not believe in the nanny state.
Despite Starbuck’s corporate facade of Leftist tokenism, it seems business is business.
To: Seeing More Clearly Now
Maybe Starbucks jumped on board this campagin because it saw the Leftist sounding phrase “legal defense fund’ in the group’s title.

Can’t wait.

If you have a Starbucks card you get two hours of free wireless per day. Limiting the hours ensures that users will not grow roots, tying up the seats for other customers.

Why do y’all demand the freebies extended to the professional educators you so despise? I fail to see why homesschoolers are entitled to a promotion a coffee shop freely offers.

Who said that we demand it?? Are you a LLORT? If you are, go back to the DU, because you sound like you LOVE the PUBLIC SCHOOL, or as my kids calls them — the SOCIALIST INDOCTRINE CENTER!!

Aren’t you cold, though?
Nope we made this house to be a solar house, glass to capture the sun's rays and a wood stove to heat it when we need it. We love the house.

Free coffee? I’m surprised Starbucks isn’t charging homeschool parents double. I bet they get a lot of hate mail from the teacher’s union.
