Want to homeschool for high school? It’s a great choice, but where do you start and what are your reasons for doing it?
In these articles we’ll look at:
I’m personally interested in encouraging my children into an entrepreneurial pursuit instead of college. This is because I think there are more avenues for success if you are able to think outside the box. I think homeschoolers are more than equipped to do this and their educational mode helps them with this.
There are so many homeschooling programs on the market today! Every website recommends its own favourite. How do you know the best homeschooling curriculum when you see it? Sometimes a recommendation from a friend is helpful, but their experience with a curriculum might be narrow. You can also look at...
I recently had the privilege of reviewing the BJU Biblical Worldview program. This program offers high-school-aged homeschoolers a comprehensive induction into a good Christian worldview. The worldview offered is consistent with Bob Jones university theology - conservative and very decided in its opinions. Students won't come out with a wishy-washy...
Many children can finish or graduate early from high school and begin their trade or college degrees a lot earlier than most of their school peers. By doing so, these early school-leavers can also finish their college or trade studies much earlier than is normal. The trick is encouraging students...
If you're worried your homeschooler won't be able to attend university if they're homeschooled, you're not alone.

Acellus Academy (AA) is actually not a homeschooling curriculum at all. It's a private online school that students can join at any time of the year. They can study the course at their own pace while still enjoying the homeschool environment. Acellus offers both Common Core-aligned and non-aligned courses. It is a...
Many home educators think they need to use a curriculum that has some sort of homeschooling accreditation for their children to have any chance of attending college. Thankfully, this is not the case and homeschoolers can easily enter college with nothing to their name except a decent SAT or ACT...
Have you ever wondered if homeschoolers adapt to college after living what many people think is a sheltered life? As a homeschooler, I wondered if my experience of going from homeschool to college (after living in a loving, Christian household) was universal. So, in this article, we're going to explore...

While some peer influences are positive and spur schoolchildren on to good actions and thoughts, negative peer pressure in school is common...
