We homeschool. One of my husbands oldest daughters (by another marriage) was homeschooled and has now graduated from Hillsdale College and is working in the wine industry in California.
I redid high school on a home school curriculum which vastly improved my reading, writing, mathematics, and history knowledge. I’ve even picked up some Spanish which is handy every now and then.
I cringe thinking of what I was subjected to in the public schools and would NEVER do that to my own children!
I teach college government.
The BEST students are homeschooled and Asian.
Needless to say, the Teacher's Unions hate this option. I see it as an important safety valve to protect parents and students schools that can't or won't maintain discipline and maintain academic standards.
My son is homeschooled and there is a vast homeschool network where I am. Best decision ever. The homeschool kids get together every week and they are so well-behaved, smart and grounded. The difference is astonishing.
I went to a spelling bee for homeschoolers. I cannot express in words how smart the kids that participated were. It left me speechless.
What was your source/site for the high school curriculum — would be interested in looking into it.
I’ve said this before......
Will say it again.....
My wife and I HS’d our two kids....
Started in SoCal....in 1989-90..Our oldest was 5...
Never had any issues in SoCal....just had to have an “umbrella” school...over us.
Moved to OK...in around 1997-98........
Never had any issues...here either.
Both of our children are professionals....and doing well.
Paying taxes...and employed.
And are happy.....
