Yes! I just called the number and asked about it. So before 2020, Calvert used to be only paper books. Then they got bought by a Blackrock subsidiary and eliminated paper books and replaced them with online learning. Paper books were not a choice. Then last year, Blackrock shut down the online learning altogether. The lady I spoke with said that they brought back paper books after the online learning was shut down. She said that they likely didn't present the paper book option to us because our son was in middle school and the paper books are only for elementary school. Calvert has discontinued middle school altogether. I learned something new today. :)
edit to add: this Blackrock subsidiary seems to have bought lots and lots of curriculums and seems to control the homeschool curriculum marketplace. :(
We homeschooled all 4 of our children to some degree. The youngest 2 were homeschooled throughout junior high and high school! All 4 received pretty much full scholarships to college - all 4 have graduated. I'm 73 so you can kinda guess how long it's been since we have home schooled. It was a great experience - currently all 4 of my children plan to home school their children (too young right now).
