Welcome
to High-School Home-Schoolers Together, a
web community of
home-schoolers just like you facing the same issues
...how can my parents
teach the material? how -- or will -- colleges accept home-education??Am
I missing the social-life of high-school ... such as sports, cheer-leading,
prom?
"Am I doing the right thing home-schooling into the high-school???If so, how do I handle all the issues that arise?
Are you doing the right thing???Finally,
there is only one person who can decide: YOU. The home-schooling
student -- Not your peers, Not a thousand books, brochures, and websites,
certainly not the school districts (all they want is money for your being
enrolled with them), and not even your parents. Many of these can help
you, but if you don't really want to do it ... it wont work for your good.
My word of advice: To succeed with home-education in the higher
grades you have to not only want to do it, but be able to be independent
and take charge of your education.?Take a look back at the page title:
home-schooling in high school is self schooling. At this stage
of your education your parents can't continue to teach you everything,
but it doesn't mean you have to turn to the school systems, it means you
need to be a little more active and seek out what you need. The most
important thing your parent can do is "teach you to teach yourself".
See what representatives from various universities have
to say about home-schooling applicants. These are actual quotes collected
from the colleges.
Educational Games (under construction)!
