Homeschooling Does Not Have to Conform
Jun 11th, 2008 | By Jessica Parnell | Category: General Homeschool Posts, Issues in Homeschooling, New to HomeschoolingThe question, “But does this homeschool program line up with what they do in the public schools?” is one of my biggest pet peeves. Why? Because what they are doing in the public schools is failing! Kids are dropping out every day; others are pushed through a system that is not providing them with even the fundamentals; and still others struggle through a program that places them in a mold that just does not fit them.
The beauty of homeschooling is that you don’t have to fit into that public school mold. You can choose to find ways to teach your child that work! You can opt out of using slanted textbooks to teach history and science and instead explore the world in an engaging and upbeat way.
Stop comparing your homeschool program to what they are doing in the public school. Instead, prepare your child for his or her future by focusing your efforts on effective teaching that works and that inspires a love for learning!
If you haven’t visited Bridgeway Academy’s website yet, I encourage you to do so. No other academy looks at kids as thoroughly and no other academy offers the variety that allows you to teach your child in a way that meets his or her specific needs. That variety and expertise gives you the much needed tools to teach your childen in a way that works for them!
