Home schooling costs money???? I thought it was done in your home.

never ceases to amaze me how much misinformation is out there about homeschooling.
I understood perfectly what you were trying to say.
i agree with the recommendation about alpha omega publications
www.aop.com
I use Lifepacs (from aop) this year and they make it quite easy for you, as far as layout, scheduling record keeping so on.
you can browse for used curriculum providers (just type "used homeschool curriculum" in to your search bar) and you can get them even more inexpensively.
Pennywise (not sure about the whole name off hand) sells curriculum at a discount, but the shipping costs sometimes outweighs the discount.
Full retail on the lifepacs are about 40 per subject where I live.
good luck in your homeschooling!

If you are sending your child to a private home to be schooled, there are all sorts of issues:
Is that home a licensed day care?
Do they carry liability insurance?
Is there a method of monitoring so that the children are safe and not being physically/mentally abused?
Are they paying taxes, fees, and other bills that would prevent them from being investigated, which would then lead to YOU being investigated?
True homeschooling actually occurs in your own home - and there's no charge for it. The local public school will provide you with materials, curriculum and texts if you request them.

Rod & Staff has the cheapest book I have ever found and they let you pay them out. Also they do not charge shipping and handling fees. These are the best, most complete books that I have ever seen. Contact them at Rod & Staff Publishers, Inc. Crockett, Kentucky 41413 USA, or search the web.

Alpha Omega is about $300 a year with a choice of programs (Switched on Schoolhouse, Lifepac, Horizon). It is all layed out for you and is one of the easies to teach

um, well if you want to be homeschooled you have to ask your parents about that on as they will be the ones teaching you. but if you're looking for a homeschool-based college i know that Patrick Henry College somewhere in VA was started for homeschoolers

I think you are referring to homestudy courses that you do through an accredited school. Try BYU.edu - they have homestudy classes relatively inexepensive... but you probably have to get permission from your local high school's academic advisement office BEFORE you enroll to make sure you have a proctor (test supervisor) and they will accept the credits towards your h.s. diploma.

Paying to send a child to school, or paying anything is called Private School. If you are being charged for Home Schooling your child, send me $3.99.
taxes may apply, offer prohibited in certain areas, void if uncertain of outcome.

Forgive me if I am mistaken, but homeschool means that you homeschool your children at home.
