Relationships between Healthcare & Homeschoolers and SciExperience.com
As homeschoolers, our trust and relationships among those outside the homeschool community is often fragile, and this includes the healthcare community.

She is also going to talk about her ministry, SciExperience, what it is and how you can participate in it.

Dr. Callentine has a great love for teaching. She is a pediatrician, homeschool mother, and former classroom teacher with a certification in elementary education. Dr. Callentine received her B.A. from Northwestern University where she studied in the School of Education majoring in Human Development and Social Policy while competing on a full athletic scholarship in basketball. She is a former 5th grade classroom teacher with a masters degree in education. She completed her M.D. at the University of Illinois at Chicago College of Medicine and trained at Christ Hospital and Medical Center in Oak Lawn, IL. Dr. Callentine continues to have wonderment for the beauty of God's creation in the human body. She left formal medicine in the E.R. to stay home and homeschool her three children. However, she still practices her hobby of medicine at a Christian Clinic in the Chicago suburbs.

Dr. Callentine has taught hands-on science in many different settings and forums. She has spoken at a large variety of support groups, community organizations, and conventions such as the Illinois Christian Home Educators convention. She is on the board of directors for theParentalRights.org that is seeking to defend the rights of parents through an amendment to the U.S. constitution. Dr. Callentine is passionate about the biological sciences, children, education, families, and the God who created all things.
