Sonlight has exposed our kids to wonderful literature, unique perspectives, and at all times, the highest standards. I appreciate Sonlight's flexibility. I work full time and love how I can tailor the schedule to suit our lifestyle. We spent the past year studying British history and literature in preparation for a trip to Great Britain.  Here, Mom, Caroline (15) and Meredith (13) read from The Ravenmaster's Secret outside the Tower of London. The family has been studying with Sonlight for 8 years.  

"We've been a Sonlight family for most of the past 15 years," writes Melissa C of Wray, CO. "It was the first curriculum we ever researched and, after looking into dozens of others (and using some of them), the one we came back to. I love that the Instructor's Guide does all the planning for me. Our bookworm kids devour the Readers, and even our kids who didn't enjoy reading have been captivated by the literature. Read-Aloud time is, hands down, our favorite part of the day! It's like pulling old friends off the shelf as we read and reread them to our five kids." Eloise (13, HBL W) celebrates the end of the year with her finished stack of books!

Your curriculum has opened our eyes to the world and broadened our compassion for those in other cultures. The writing projects have been an excellent tool to start discussions about life with our children. Thank you for helping us instill the 'love to learn' mentality in our children! Here, Nathan (13) and Alan (15) tell friends Katelyn (15) and Jennifer (13) about the books they read this past year. The boys generated so much enthusiasm for the Core that Katelyn (who is using Core 300) told her parents she wants to read their Core 100 books even though they're not part of her assigned reading. The S family is using Core 100 in their eighth year of Sonlight, as their friends use Cores H and 300 in their third year of Sonlight.
