Why homeschooling leads to admissions to the best colleges

Credits, transcripts, portfolios, diplomas, graduation

Tackling those higher level subjects

GED, Running Start, teens in the workplace

“Quit School and Get a Real Life and Education”, G. Llewellyn

Transitioning out of the “system”

There is meaningful work without college

Socialization in the real world

Handouts, take-home resources, and more!

One legal way to homeschool in Washington is to take a Parent Qualifying Course.  April Thome runs HomeLink.  It’s a business that offers supplementary courses for homeschoolers, much like a private school, only on a part-time basis.

She offers a Parent Qualifying course at Perry Technical Institute in August.  The course fee is $80.  To register call 248-6388

Washington’s homeschool law is fairly easy to navigate.

We recommend you read the Washington Homeschool Organization’s page about the history of the homeschooling law in Washington and how to comply.
