Transitioning Into Home School

In the present era, many works have been published documenting the severe faults and weaknesses of public education as it pertains to the Christian life as well as the quality of education itself. For this reason, many have the desire to homeschool their children but have difficulty in the transition. Simply put, they want to homeschool but are overwhelmed at such a transition.

Therefore, I have decided to write a conscise booklet in helping parents overcome some of the real obstacles that homeschool parents face. The focus will be on three key areas: theological underpinnings, fiscal responsibities, and logistics. The theological section will highlight some of the critical reasons why Christian parents should consider homeschooling. Secondly, finances will be covered because this tends to be one of the most problematic areas when transitioning from a two-income family to a single-income family, especially when health insurance and/or immense debt is involved. Finally, logistics will cover the nuts and bolts of curriculum selection, implementation, and familial roles.
