I want to homeschool my highschool daughter?

[Jackie]

Honmeschooling sounds exactly what your precious daughter needs. I was a public and private school teacher, but have been homeschooling my daughter for the last 8 years and wouldn't have it any other way. Yes, she tried public school 2 or 3 times, but they failed her.

Socialization doesn't have to be an issue for homeschoolers. There are great homeschool support groups and homeschool co-op classes in most every area today. Just Google the following: homeschool support groups (your town), and homeschool co-op classes (your town).

Most homeschoolers have access to sports, drama, P.E., yearbooks, dances, field trips, science and history clubs... Many times you have to limit what your child is going to be involved in because there is so much available.

Visit some homeschool groups and co-op classes to get a better idea of what is offered and begin making new friends.

A great online site for high school homeschoolers is http://www.letshomeschoolhighschool.com They also have a Twitter and FB page (Highschool-Homeschool). There is a section for parents or caregivers and one for students. It is full of great info!

Best wishes, you CAN do it.
