Need advice about how to homeschool your high schooler?
|
What counts for high school credit? What are my high schooler’s options after graduation? Should I really homeschool my child through high school?
We’re addressing these questions and more! Tarla Gernert, founder of Homeschool Connections and HighPoint Hybrid, earned her B.S. Degree in Education at Liberty University and has taught in a variety of schools including public, private, and homeschooling programs. Her true passion is helping people figure out how best to educate their children and prepare them for the rest of their lives.
We're here to help you at any level, whether you are thinking about homeschooling, have a homeschooler finishing junior high, or have a high schooler approaching graduation!
Seats are limited.

Come on in & take a look at the lost and found! Let your campus supervisors know how well they're doing!
