Homeschooling through high school is easier than you think! Homeschool academies mean parents don't have to teach the subjects they're not comfortable teaching. Students attend classes in-person once a week. It's a great alternative to public and private school for parents who want to have more control over their students' education. Find out more at this free workshop sponsored by Mid-Metro Academy!

Public Workshop: Yes, You Can Homeschool through High School! Do you have questions about homeschooling? You may be dissatisfied with public and charter school options. There's no question that private schools are expensive. But homeschooling your teenager may seem daunting.

If you know families who are thinking about homeschooling their students in grades 6-12 but have questions, let them know about this free workshop!
