"Would Sonlight prepare my children for the rigors of college level work?" Leslie R of Duncanville, TX often wondered during her early years of home schooling.  "Now that my oldest, Nathan, has graduated with a degree in Mechanical Engineering and my second, Sophia, is in college, I can answer that question with a hearty affirmative! Thank you, Sonlight, for providing me with all the tools necessary to not only give my children an excellent academic foundation but also a love for learning." Both of Leslie's older children used Sonlight for 12 years before going off to college, while her youngest daughter, Lydia, is now in high school.

Thanks so much for saving our homeschooling experience! We have been homeschooling our oldest from the beginning, but it seemed to get harder each year. We were using a popular workbook-based curriculum for 3 years and then switched, out of desperation, to a computer-based program. But all we got was cries of 'I hate school!!' I was at my wits end when a friend recommended Sonlight. We got Core D and slowly I noticed he wasn't upset at the mention of school time. By the time we finished the year, he was not complaining at all. A few years after we'd started Sonlight, he said, 'Mom, don't tell anyone, but I actually like school now. I kind of hate to have to stop for the weekends.' That was music to my ears. Here, middle son, Eli (5), gives a sprawling hug to his new Core A books. The D family is now in their fourth year of Sonlight.
