2012-2013 School plans

This years homeschooling theme is Renewed Commitment

I have been so distracted the past four years trying to balance working (at home) and schooling. This year, is my renewed commitment to our homeschooling success.

Max will be heading back to college mid August, I won't have control of the school room until he goes, as it is his space for now. We have continued working on catching up in our math books, literature studies with Shakespeare summer, piano and music classes in full force, so we aren't starting from neutral.

She will take the PSAT for real this tear, and then SAT (& ACT, if needed). She has her drivers permit and will be able to take the test in late November, provided the online course work is done.
