Our oldest daughter is now in high school! I have had many people ask me how to start homeschooling - I thought it might be helpful to put my standard answers in blog form so that the information will be easily accessible (and easily referable if you have friends with the same questions!)

Back to school purchase o-rama
One of my favorite homeschooling perks: not being forced to purchase a ridiculous array of unnecessary and expensive school supplies. Kendall has had the idea for the past few years (thanks for nothing TV commercials and store displays!!!) that August means that its time for an entire new wardrobe, an enormous set of new school supplies, and a complete room makeover. Think again, batman! Sorry - you're homeschooled honey, we're not buying into that. Literally.

YAY test scores!
Kendall's CAT 5 scores finally arrived in the mail today and she did FANTASTIC! She was rated a stanine score of 9 (the highest possible score in the above-average range) and scored higher than 98% of children in her grade, nationally.
Kendall has always done well in school, but since we've always homeschooled her, its nice to get some outside "validation"
