<p>Hello!<br>
I have homeschool and cyberschooled my four kids for YEARS - and now have three in college (2 air force academy, 1 private LAC). </p>
<p>There are some issues with homeschooling a highschooler who has never been at home before. Depending on your child, the first issue to confront is simply “de-schooling.” Schooling at home is not like schooling in a brick-n-mortar, and there is an adjustment period which can’t be ignored.</p>
<p>Of course, the question of curricular materials will rear its ugly head, but a tough issue for both the child and the parent will be that educational buzz word “socialization.” For your child, there may be some period of uncertainty as he adjusts to not seeing his school peers every day, not being locked into a particular schedule, and since we’re talking high school here, being responsible for work with just pacing from the parent. For both of you will come questions from people formerly buried in the woodwork. The most hilarious one we encountered was “What about the prom?” We had only one of four who was interested in the prom, my d. Turns out, she just wanted the dress.</p>
<p>You can p.m. me with specific questions.</p>
