Free to Learn: The High School Years of a Home Schooler

"No school today?" The familiar question is asked by a nurse whom I meet in the elevator. I smile and patiently begin to explain yet again, "Actually, I’m homeschooled..." Can you really home school your high schooler? Meet Rachel Kresina, a high school student who has flourished with the flexibility home schooling offers.

I have another member joining this group for you.

Comment by Bethany on February 6, 2009 at 10:12pm: I was homeschooled until I was 16, then I started attending our local Community College and completed my GE requirements for college at the same time I completed my Junior and Senior years of High School. I'm definitely doing the same thing when I have my own kids. Now I'm starting to work with Homeschool groups in my area teaching sports classes/Physical Education and career development classes. I'm a huge advocate of homeschooling, but like to remind people to teach their kids how to interact with people in the "real world". I have a lot of homeschool friends who had a hard time once they graduated because they never learned how to live outside of the home.
Have a great weekend everyone!

Comment by Submerged on February 6, 2009 at 11:05am: Just wanted to drop by and say.... keep on keeping on with homeschooling. I homeschooled Nic (guitar) and Cait (guitar/songwriter) of Submerged all their school years. And David (bass for Submerged)has been homeschooled all of his school time thus far as well.

Wishing you many blessings.
Karen

Comment by Tabby on October 26, 2008 at 9:25pm: I homeschool in 2nd and 3rd grade then 9th through now (11th grade). You have to listen to Tim Hawkins' song "A Homeschool Family" He is a Christian comedian that takes songs and puts funny lyrics to them. This song is to the tune of "The Adams' Family"! So Hilarious!!

Comment by Stephanie Meier on October 20, 2008 at 5:19pm: I was homeschooled my whole life and loved it! I just graduated, and hope to homeschool my own kids someday. :)

Comment by Seth on October 19, 2008 at 12:15am: What is your favorite part of Homeschooling your kids? and how come their pics aren't on your photo slides

Comment by Jimbo on October 17, 2008 at 7:40pm: I took off my cats photo since I started a cat lover group and added this picture from my trip to Mt. Rushmore. That is a better picture for something to do with learning!

Comment by Robin Steinhebel on October 14, 2008 at 10:41pm: I home school my 8yo daughter and my 2yo daughter likes to "do school work" too!! I have seen nothing but good things since we decided to follow Gods leading and start home schooling.
