Quote of the Day
We're not trying to do "School at Home." We're trying to do homeschool. These are two entirely different propositions. We're not trying to replicate the time, style or content of the classroom. Rather we're trying to cultivate a lifestyle of learning in which learning takes place from morning until bedtime seven days each week. The "formal" portion of each teaching day is just the tip of the iceburg.
