We have used Sonlight Curriculum for a decade! We love the great literature, flexible structure, and opportunity for all our girls to grow in their unique abilities. We save each Core for our youngest and when she completes it, we have a family gathering and review each book and decide which books need to stay on as part of our permanent family library. Our library is growing with fantastic literature that also has beautiful family memories attached to each book. Katie says that homeschooling has allowed their family bonds to flourish. This photo is a glimpse into 17-year-old Elizabeth's relationship with her dad. Elizabeth is graduating this year as she finishes British Literature 530. 

"Sonlight remains the best fit for our family after all these years," writes Kim T of Bloomington, IL. "We have always loved how 'portable' Sonlight is. You can take it wherever you want; even under the ladder of your bunk bed! Anna loves reading her Sonlight Readers wherever her cat is." Anna has used Sonlight since she was 5-years-old; she is now 17 and studying Core 400. Her older siblings also used Sonlight for their entire schooling. Sarah (19) is in her junior year of nursing school, while Josh (22) just graduated with a double major in marketing and business.

I discovered Sonlight 16 years ago and boy, am I glad I did! The high interest level of Sonlight books have given my active boys (and my more tranquil daughter) the opportunity to hear and learn from great books even if they couldn't sit still very long. Even in high school, we choose some books to read aloud because we enjoy books together and it has become part of our DNA. Although this photo is staged, 17-year-old Nathaniel really can maneuver a soccer ball while he reads or listens to Christie read. He is studying Core 300 and British Literature in his twelfth and final year of Sonlight. His three older siblings all used Sonlight from 6th grade through high school, graduated college, and are now working.
