Presentation:
Homeschool High School: YOU CAN DO IT!
Homeschooling high school is easier than you think. The key to successfully homeschooling high school is to start with the end in mind. It is never too early to start praying about high school and looking ahead. In this session, Carrie explains what is required, gives tips on meeting those requirements in creative ways, and encourages the most fearful moms that homeschooling through high school is not only doable but can be enjoyable too! In this session, Carrie shares how to: • Use the high school years to discern God’s purpose and plan for your teen’s life • Design a 4-Year Plan for High School • Create transcripts & how to determine high school credit • Meet state graduation requirements in both traditional and non-traditional ways • Capitalize on the freedom and flexibility of homeschooling high school • Prepare for college admissions for the college-bound teen • Include AP, CLEP, Honors, & Community College Dual Enrollment, • and more… Come with your fears, challenges, and questions. Just breathe… You can homeschool high school and enjoy it too
 

Sabbath Schooling – It saved my sanity!

The year Carrie and her family fell back in love with homeschooling was the year they learned to truly rest through Sabbath Schooling. What is Sabbath Schooling? It is intentionally adding time in your day, your week, and your homeschool calendar for periods of rest. In this session, Carrie shares practical tips on how to apply the idea of Sabbath and rest to your homeschool lessons, schedules, and calendars. She even shares how her family took a few homeschooling sabbatical years. These precious Sabbath moments are not wasted time but are an important part of your homeschooling journey. After this session, you will no longer feel guilty about taking a much-needed coffee break or a much-deserved day, week, (or even a month) of rest.
