You might want to check with your State Education Dept first to see what they accept. Every state is different and before you put a lot of effort in this you should have a good idea of what the rules and regulations are.

Currently the grade of Kindergarden is not "required"  However it is valuable.  So 6 years at the elementary (K-5th)  Then we have "middle school " which is 3 years (6-8th) them high school is 4 years (9-12th)  equaling a total of 13 years.  By the way - Welcome to America!  At 12 yrs old you would be in the 7th grade.

http://www.setonhome.com\n\nIts not an online homeschool school though. You enroll them in the school and they send you the books and lesson plans. You take the tests online though. And you get a diploma when you graduate and everything. Its a hard school though. But it prepares you for college.\n\nAnd then theres also: http://www.kolbe.org/ but I don't know too much about it. Some of my friends used it because you can take latin as a language when you can't do that with Seton.

i was home schooled from the 6th to the 9th grade. it was horrible when my mother did put me back in school i was so lost socially. i think that children need to go to public school so that real life isnt such a shock to them.

I love it. I get to help advance my child's education to his full potential. We don't have to follow the "appropriate" guideline for what grade level to follow. He will be entering the 7th grade (homeschooling) this fall, and he will be using mostly 7th grade curriculum. Though in some subjects, specifically literature and health, he will be at a 9th grade level. It's a nice change. He can go at his own pace, ask for help when he needs it. Eat when he is hungry, drink when he is thirsty, and use the bathroom without permission. \n\nI wouldn't trade homeschooling him for anything...and neither would he.

~Your mother didn't help you by allowing you to be home schooled.  If you went to a real school, you could have joined a study group and you could have had the workbook done two months ago.  Talk to your "teacher" if you need help and stop wasting your time playing on your computer.

Its not possible for a eight grader to take a full college course. Though it is quite possible that they can do a part of it, if he really has his basics clear.

There are great home schooling websites, english.com for one. Math.com etc.... some charge some don't. College english is obviouly more advanced but you can find it all right from the search engines. I home schooled one of my daughters, when the internet was a baby... now it is a great resource with mountains of information for home schooling teacher, i.e. parents.

I am 36 years old, and I have never thought about my own schooling from that perspective.  However, I would have to say that my early elementary years were excellent, and I received that education from the public school system.  I had caring, hard working teachers that excelled at their jobs, but they also had the advantage of the "old" school system of class rules which were obeyed (such as no talking without permission), corporal punishment, and active parental involvement.  However, I moved to a different state in my junior high years, and in my opinion, that is where my education pretty much stopped.  That state and school district was exactly the opposite of my elementary years.  Therefore, to answer your question, I know that I would have learned more through homeschooling during my seventh through twelfth grades.  However, I would have only learned more than I did because I would have had more time to teach myself since I had to become a self-learner.  Thus, I believe that your intelligence is most affected by you, not the school that you attend.  In other words, the student has to apply him or herself in learning or the educational institution that they attend will really not matter.

Try http://www.k12.com\nThis one is expensive, but very high quality. I use it with one of my homeschooled children. Much of the curriclum is delivered directly via the online school and the lesson planning/scheduling tools are fantastic! The parent is still the primary instructor.\n\nIf the main reason you are looking into online homeschooling is that you wish to have a teacher do the teaching, you have a broader array of options than just online curriculum. Abeka has a video-based homeschool version of its curriculum. The students watch the videoa of real classroom teachers. With yet another option the student sends thier work in to the teacher for grading and all student records are maintained by the school. \n\nHere are some additional video or computer-based curriculums and supplements:\n\nVideotext Algebra. This series of video modules will take the student from introductory algebra through algebra II. The series has been donated to our homeschool lending library, but we have not used it personally.\n\nDIVE CD-ROMs for Saxon Algebra and for several of the major science curriculums. We have used the DIVE supplement to the Saxon Advanced Mathematics textbook. It provides a computerized whiteboard demonstration of a teacher working through the example problems. It does not give the whiteboard solutions to every problem in the text. There is a new video curriculum out that works out every problem's solution, but I have not been able to remember the name of it. Some internet research might turn it up for you.\n\nCybered - Most of the science courses are offered from midle school level to high school. We have several of these and have used their online subscription service while they had it. These are excellent!\n\nSwitched On Schoolhouse. This one is a complete curriculum with all the instruction, record keeping, and testing being done via computer. I used a trila of this many years ago. It looked pretty good.\n\nThe Institute for Excellence in Writing now has a DVD version of their composition curriculum. We used the teacher led version for our writing co-op a few years ago and it was wonderful. I have not seen the DVD version, but it is taught by Dr. Padewa himself. It should be excellent. One of the students who graduated from our co-op using the teacher led version won a state level composition contest and my son scored in the top 94th percentile in rhetoric on his ACT test. It is really good.\n\nThere are many new online high schools now that I have not researched. Includeing several run by major universities. A bit of research should turn up several of them. I have a few links in 'My Favorites' that I saved a while back. You can start here:\nhttp://www.highschoolhub.org/hub/hub.cfm\nhttp://www.homeschoolersofmaine.org/high_school_&_beyond.htm#Free%20Online%20Courses\nhttp://www.cis.upenn.edu/~brada/homeschooling.html

The quick answer is yes and no.  First, it depends your parents - are they ok with it?  Second, it depends on the laws in your state.  Third, it depends on your age - if you're 8-10, I'd say, no way.  If you're 15 or older, I'd probably say OK.\n\nMy older son (11) works pretty independently on some subjects, while I oversee/teach others.  Of course, I always check his work, so he's never completely independent.\n\nYes, there are independent study courses available both on-line and for home use (Switched-On Schoolhouse from Alpha Omega comes to mind).  So it is possible to 'teach yourself'.
