The Homeschoolers Aggregate

The Homeschoolers Aggregate appears to be a secular forum for gifted homeschoolers to receive informal assignments in and to discuss Literary Theory, Poetry, Art, and Moral and Ethical Philosophy. Whether the Aggregate is an accredited institution, and whether it supports other subjects outside the liberal arts, is unknown.

Internet fans of Bree stumbled across the HSAOnline introductory and training videos hosted on YouTube. The source of the lonelyfans' speculation that Bree is/was a student of the Homeschoolers Aggregate is unknown, but several participants of the Tribute to Lonelygirl15 Phorum flocked to register in a new session to be administered by HSAOnline's strict but supportive educator, Ms. Kelly, who continually exhorts the students to "Study up!"

Ms. Kelly and the HSAOnline administrators seem very solicitous regarding the online privacy of their student families. HSAOnline appears to be recovering from some sort of major recent hack, based on some oblique comments from Ms. Kelly.

We play by the rules. And yet information wants to be free.

Many of the new HSAOnline students, like many of the fans of the lonelygirl15-inspired internet game cassieiswatching, use Bukanator's forum as a secondary clubhouse to discuss the mysterious Aggregate.

Characters Teachers and Administrators Ms. Kelly- Ms. Kelly's YouTube Channel TWJaniak -- a Fan Activity moderator on Bukanator's forum, notable among the lonelyfans as the creator of a series of videos giving advice to Bree and Daniel on their growing relationship. Ms Kelly invited Mr. Janiak to be a guest speaker for the new course. TW produced a video on the topic of Truth in Friendship for the current orientation class. Currently, he is viewed as a guest instructor, who offers wisdom and guidance to the orientation class of students. Notable Students to Date: taiya -- a lonelyfan puzzle solver, likely to become a star pupil in Ms Kelly's course due to her prowess with the Registration Problem. Josh -- a potential student who was briefly shunned for spoofing Ms Kelly in guestbook comments; Ms Kelly unblocked Josh before the end of Registration. Josh was subsequently blocked again for telling Ms. Kelly that he couldn't complete his assignments because he had "a life." JoannaChildsface -- a lonelyfan who can be counted on for keeping students updated on Guestbook Gossip and other mysteries of HSAOnline. Violet -- a current student who corresponds with former student Lyn Mayati -- Marisa or Meritmenat Byrne, a current student who appears to reside in a different time zone from most of the HSA students. Mayati describes herself as a 17 year old girl who attends a very small school and who has religious and work chores which take up much of her time. She has hinted that she practices a minority religion which incorporates Kemetic elements, and she may have known Bree when both girls were younger. Truth_n_sc -- a new friend who helps Lyn by offering supportive suggestions and comments to her blog entries Rumored Former Students Rumored Former Students: Lyn -- a former student who seems to have been expelled from HSA. She broke Ms. Kelly's rule about contacting classmates. She and her mother, Ms. Kelly's former employee, have recently moved away from their old town, and currently reside in an unnamed town with Lyn's grandmother. Lyn stresses that she was not involved in any of the recent problems facing HSA. Bree End of Orientation 2006 Orientation 2006 ended with a rousing speech by Lord Greystoke422 entitled HSAO: What is Reality. This 18 minute and 48 second video ended the term with a presentation that they were not expecting. Graduates who completed the necessary assignments were issued diplomas and were treated to HSAO online yearbooks. The graduates were: Amy#2       Joanna Childsface       Alystra       Faith       Summer       KT          Taiya       Josh       D.Kimble       Seige       Violet       Kevin       Blair Disorientation 2006 For a short period, HSAO's director, Ms. Kelly, was institutionalized for reasons that are unclear but somewhat explained in a video entitled Rose Kelly. There was some speculation as to whether Ms. Kelly suffered from spontaneous combustions. During this period, students were invited along on a train trip by a mysterious host/architect. This train ride turned into a surrealistic and confusing journey that led guests nowhere. Although the lounge, library and drawing room art offered much to occupy the travelers, there was little else to do but watch as guests became frustrated with the host and left one by one. Ms. Kelly jumped off of the train part way through the trip to get back to her family, her school and the consequences she faced for some fraudulent behavior. She vowed to turn things around and applied for 501(c)(3) nonprofit status for her school. Back at the helm, she began planning a new term for her students focused on technology and art.
