The Store:
The HEP Bookstore is a
"full service" homeschool store. The store stocks popular
homeschooling curriculum and supplies. We have a large selection of
"how-to-homeschool" books and CD's. We sell lesson plan books, home
organizers, and transcript kits. The store also sells many unique and
hard to find items including: Driver's Ed. in a Box, graduation items,
games, toys, history action figures,
t-shirts, Lego Education kits and tables, science kits, Delta Sand, Folkmanis Puppets, Gund
Puppets and toys, and many other popular items. HEP Bookstore is also
a member of the national "Homeschool Headquarters" group and as such, we
provide a catalog for our customer's convenience.
HEP Bookstore
specializes in offering top quality customer service. Our trained and
experienced sales clerks have all been homeschool parents or students.
Many have homeschooled for years and thus have knowledge ranging from
pre-school to the college years. All are friendly and will readily
listen and give "hugs" if needed! We are open SIX days a week for your
convenience.
Our store is clean,
neat, and very organized! We strive to provide a relaxing and
enjoyable shopping experience for our customers. We have a table and
chairs for you to sit down and relax. We encourage you to look at the
curriculum and to touch it. You won't know if you like a curriculum
until you really examine it up close and personally! On-line shopping
cannot duplicate this experience.
We also have a
lunchroom where you can sit and enjoy a break. Our play area has a LEGO
workstation for children ages 2 and up. We also have a table and
chairs, beach chairs, and lots of toys for children of all ages. We
strive to be homeschool family friendly. We do ask our customers to
eat and drink in our lunch area so that we can maintain a clean and neat
store.
