ADIOS FRIENDS, SEE YOU IN A MONTH! 😅😅😅 My attention has been pulled a thousand directions this year, so I need to take some time to focus on my kids' educations. I hope you all have a lovely summer and I'll see ya later!
Homeschoolers don't have to miss out on band, sports, and other group activities. This is what a one-room schoolhouse looks like for band, with students from 9-18yo.

Exactly, homeschooling only takes 1-2 hours a day for elementary and middle school. For my two high schoolers, we have homeschool time together ~5-7 hours weekly and the rest they do independently (with weekly check-in meetings for accountability and any needed course…
Effective schooling can be done in only a couple hours a day. Most of the contents of a traditional school day are unnecessary bloat. Nobody questions the bloat, because school is also childcare. Which requires 7-8 hours a day of kids looking busy.

👇👇👇Thanks to @IWF, @christy_narsi and @neerajadeshp for shining a light on the dark places in NM! Parents need to know what's happening in schools and everyone needs to understand the dangerous laws passed by our progressive-controlled legislature.

HOMESCHOOLERS + ART = 🥰🥰🥰 This is my daughter Alina's latest creation. As someone who has no artistic talent, I'm still amazed at the artwork my two kid create. They have had very little training, but lots of time and space to practice while homeschooling.
Thanks for all your prayers and well wishes! The last couple weeks have been rough, but things are looking up now!
