If you’ve ever wondered whether homeschooling can really work through the high school years, this conversation is for you.

Today I’m talking with Rachel Kovac, a homeschooling mother of six and author of Their Future Is Shining Bright: A Guide to Homeschooling in High School. And I have to tell you—this conversation is about so much more than transcripts, college applications, and checking boxes. (Although she provides incredible detailed lists for all of those things!)

We’re talking about commitment, family relationships, friendships, careers, college, and what it looks like to educate the whole person during those pivotal teenage years.

Rachel shows up with so much hope and encouragement, helping us to understand that the high school years aren’t the years we need to survive—but they are some of the very best years of our homeschool.

Thanks for being here as Rachel and I talk about homeschooling high school with joy and purpose.

 

Rachel’s Bio: Rachel Kovac is a homeschooling mother of six. In her new book Their Future is Shining Bright — A Guide to Homeschooling in High School she helps empower parents to continue homeschooling through the high school with joy and purpose.

I have to tell you about the homeschool planner I keep coming back to year after year: Sparrow Homeschool Planner.

I’ve used a LOT of homeschool planners over the last 20 years, and this is the only one I’ve actually used multiple years in a row—and written in every single day. It’s full color, beautifully designed, has plenty of space to actually plan your days, meal plan, budget, and even plan your field trips and travels. I especially love the perforated lists. You can write out your to do lists, shopping lists, packing lists, cleaning lists–whatever you want!–then tear them out, and take them with you.

It’s one of those homeschool tools that makes planning feel easier instead of adding another thing to your plate.

If you’re looking for a homeschool planner you’ll actually use, check out Sparrow Homeschool Planner and use my code [CODE] for 10% off.
