We speak regularly with college counselors across the nation, and, to date, my favorite quote by a college registrar remains, “We are in the business of educating young people.  What we are not in the business of is imparting character, time management, self governing, how to do laundry, talk to adults, and etc.”

Accredit is defined as “to authorize, give credentials to, or to certify as meeting certain set standards.”   Accreditation is not needed/required in any situation, nor does it improve your standing when returning to or entering traditional schools/colleges. 

Home education is recognized, supported, and acclaimed worldwide.  Colleges and work-forces seek out our graduates, and our chaotic world is finding anchorage by the re-forming of strong family units through this approach to education.  Homeschooling is no longer a movement but an educational choice.

We are NOT called to live in fear; we ARE called to live in wisdom…. and grace when humor fails….   (questions)

As parents we are here to nurture souls.  Our goals need to be long sighted. Aiming toward our children’s best future self as peoples who will positively impact the future. We achieve this daily by using academics as a tool, using our faith as our guiding Light, and using our day to day life as our training grounds toward self-governed high character.

Learning at home, allows us the time to accomplish all of this.
