Can I start homeschooling with Sonlight mid-year?

What if I don't finish a complete curriculum package by the end of the traditional school year?

One of the benefits of homeschooling is the freedom to create your own schedule--one that best meets your family's needs.

Many homeschooling families choose to follow the public schools' schedule. Other families start their school year at the first of the calendar year, take time off over the summer, then continue the same course of studies in the fall. And other families spread out a History / Bible / Literature curriculum package over one and a half or two years to give them time to focus on areas that specifically interest their children.

So, follow a schedule that works best for your family, and enjoy the adventure of learning!

Note: We do recommend that you check your state laws and requirements related to homeschooling.

"I love Sonlight's heart for missions and the opportunities they've provided to get involved in learning and giving towards the spread of the gospel worldwide," writes Lois B of Alberta, Canada. "Not only do we pray daily in our school curriculum for people groups, but now we have a generous jar and are being reminded of the main worldviews and how we can share the love of Jesus with them. Thanks, Sonlight, for a curriculum that looks outward instead of inward and is such a help in raising our children in the way they should go!"

Here, Shilo (12) enjoys making a Tarahumara dish while learning about the Tribal worldview in the missions worldview course provided through Sonlight's Fall 2017 missions education and giving program.

"Sonlight makes it easy to wake up and homeschool. They do all of the prep work for me. As much as I'd love to spend hours thinking about how I'll teach my kids, it doesn't often happen. I'm their Mom, too, and wife to my husband. I have other responsibilities and I want to do all of these well. I love the book choices, and how Sonlight suggests how many pages a day to read. It's so simple!" In the summer before their sixth Sonlight year, the family went on a mission trip to Uganda. This year, Joy (16) will study Level 500, while Ayden (14), Effy (12) and Jayken (10) study Level W together. – Melissa W of Brownwood, TX
