HOMESCHOOL RESOURCES FOR PARENTS (This is a work in progress, please contribute anything you've got)

Hat Tip to u/LucilleBrawl for this project/effort.

NOTE 1: This is a work in progress. Please post any good resources you have here.

NOTE 2: Before hooking up with any individual or organization on homeschooling, be sure to vet them for Anti-MAGA Lefist rhetoric and goals -- that includes all resources on this list. (Let us know if any of them fail to meet our standards.)

NOTE 3: Beware of overly-commercialized homeschool resource purveyors. Some folks are into this just for the money.

NOTE 4: Don't try to do this alone. Find other like-minded parents and join together. Know your state / local law, join a homeschool association and local / SM groups that support your values.

"My family utilizes a curriculum which provides the opportunity to meet weekly with other families in community.

Has every curriculum under the sun and then some more! It was a great place to buy homeschool books. Good luck I homeschooled both my kids and they are happy and successful today without going to college by the way! One is a self-taught gaming coding engineer and the other runs her own full time home based bakery business at the age of 19. Don't give up and persevere with the help of God!

NOTE: The Math and Science resources are untainted, but check other materials for CRT and other SJW propaganda just in case.

.....................

Ron Paul Curriculum

https://www.ronpaulcurriculum.com

Hat Tip: u/CarrieDodson17

"Absolutely the best CONTENT I have seen anywhere for subjects of Literature and History. My 4th grader loves it and is learning things I didn't know about until college and beyond. PhD level professors teaching in prerecorded course (180 lessons per subject per semester). Also have courses in science, math, etc and adult courses. By 4th grade students can work almost entirely independently with the curriculum (but you'll want to learn it too!) which is a big help especially for families with multiple kids."

.................

ABEKA (Christian Homeschooling Program)

https://www.abeka.com/homeschool

About:

In 1954, Dr. Arlin Horton and his wife, Beka, started a Christian school in Pensacola, Florida. But they soon discovered a problem. Textbooks and curriculum based on biblical educational philosophy were starting to disappear. Burdened to give their students the best education possible, they stood in the gap and began producing their own materials.

Hat Tip: u/arth

"my daughter taught piano to 3 boys who were using the christian homeschool ABEKA program and there all in college now! Both my daughters were raised on this program in private christian school."

.......................

Seton Home Study School (Catholic)

https://www.setonhome.org

Seton Home Study School is a nationally accredited, faithfully Catholic private PreK-12 distance school located in the state of Virginia. We serve an enrollment of approximately 20,000 homeschooled students, and several thousand more families through book sales and by furnishing materials to small Catholic schools.

Hat Tip: u/1HappyBuddha

"Seton Catholic homeschooling is excellent. The program handles all the paperwork for the state or country of residence. They send a box of real books, computer use is minimal. We set up a fast pace with provided math course, so we can add Singapore US edition afterwards."

Hat Tip: u/laneybelle

"BJU is a great curriculum if you’re looking for one with a biblical worldview. It’s quite rigorous. Saxon math is great also. Teaching textbooks is also great for math. Also check out Wallbuilders. They have tons of true history content."

Switched on Schoolhouse

https://www.aop.com/curriculum/switched-on-schoolhouse

Hat Tip: u/bydesign

"If your kids like computer-based learning (as mine did and do), Alpha Omega Publications has a great curriculum called Switched On Schoolhouse. It starts in 3rd grade, and goes through high school. Covers all the core subjects plus Bible studies and electives."

School choice allows public education funds to follow students to the schools or services that best fit their needs —whether that’s to a public school, private school, charter school, home school or any other learning environment families choose. Watch this video to see how an educational choice system works.

"I highly recommend researching the classical model, which I will gladly make a post on if there's an interest. Currently working on a Master's in such."

"My family utilizes a curriculum which provides the opportunity to meet weekly with other families in community. There's accountability, the chance for kids to interact with friends, cohorts of students, like-minded parents who offer encouragement, and amazing support from the curriculum company itself."

Has every curriculum under the sun and then some more! It was a great place to buy homeschool books. Good luck I homeschooled both my kids and they are happy and successful today without going to college by the way! One is a self-taught gaming coding engineer and the other runs her own full time home based bakery business at the age of 19. Don't give up and persevere with the help of God! ......................

HOMESCHOOL RESOURCES FOR PARENTS

(This is a work in progress, please contribute anything you've got)

Hat Tip to u/LucilleBrawl for this project/effort.

NOTE 1: This is a work in progress. Please post any good resources you have here.

NOTE 2: Before hooking up with any individual or organization on homeschooling, be sure to vet them for Anti-MAGA Lefist rhetoric and goals -- that includes all resources on this list. (Let us know if any of them fail to meet our standards.)

NOTE 3: Beware of overly-commercialized homeschool resource purveyors. Some folks are into this just for the money.

NOTE 4: Don't try to do this alone. Find other like-minded parents and join together. Know your state / local law, join a homeschool association and local / SM groups that support your values.
