It's been a thing, it's been a journey....but my homeschooled kids are rapidly approaching the home school event horizon (high school). Any more, and we harm their ability to compete for state and federal scholarships, regardless of the relative quality of their education. It's time to shit or get off the pot. Anybody else on this path with input? Resources, links, programs? I'm at the end of my personal ability to confidently educate. My pocket (accredited) high school educator is unreliable, and not committed to her {completely voluntary} occupation. The Wife would prefer...strongly prefer...not to send them to public schools. She's both economically and ideologically opposed to catholic schools which we have an in with. Same schools that made me. Options? Specifically, options with a social component. We feel they need to be exposed to and work within a group that isn't just them and their siblings. We're missing the social and economic aspect of public and private/public schooling. 4h has been a bust. Summer programs..a bust.
