Homeschooling
is governed by local laws, but it is legal in ALL fifty states in the US.
There is no national statute governing homeschooling. Therefore, you need to find
out the state laws that apply to you.
Will my child
have have a high school diploma?
According to Michael & Mary
Leppart who wrote the Homeschooling
Almanac, "Depending on your state's laws, probably yes - if you
choose to obtain one.
But
check first.
Generally speaking, you child can acquire a GED
diploma through your state, or you, as the principal of your own certified,
private school (if you establish one), can create your own high school diploma. Tou may
also use a nationally recognized, certified correspondence school to obtain a diploma.
Check with the parent-run organization in your state to find out firsthand your state's requirements and guidelines".

interview
& FREE excerpt: "The Truth About Curricula"
 In
this interview, Rebecca Rupp shares her insights on setting up your curricula. She says,
"My new book is different from my previous homeschool books in that it is organized
on a grade by grade (year by year) basis and can be used to create complete annual
programs of study for kids of all ages." In the excerpt, "The Truth About
Curricula," she points out that "One of the primary advantages of homeschooling
is the ability to bypass the decreed norm. Homeschoolers can design their own curricula,
assembling resources ad using approaches that best suit their own childrens
needs." Read much more about this along with specific recommendations and ideas. Best
of all, Rebecca Rupp is a regular participating member of our online discussion group
