| I think that you would be making a wise decision to homeschool your child. There are so many opportunities during High School that kids miss out on because they are stuck in a classroom all day. Homeschooling can be free if you want it to. All you need is your local library and a connection to the internet. Or you can use some curriculum. What Ive found is that a lot of people use an eclectic style where they use curriculum, the library, the internet, and they find stuff from book stores or wherever they can find things that work with the topics they are studying. You have to be committed and flexible because what works today may not work tomorrow. Another thing to remember is that real homeschooling is not "School at home" unless you are using a program from the school system or even some of the online schools. There is a lot of information on the internet about homeschooling. I suggest that you do a search for "Homeschool" and the area that you are in. Take a look at the links to get an idea of what you should look for.
Hope that helps!
Edited to add - California has not banned homeschool. Look at HSLDA's website to find out more.  |
