People from Utah Umbrella schools
From: Cris
from Utah
I was shocked at the expense of joining an
umbrella school too. So my sister and I started our own. I don't know what
the rules are for your state, but in UT all we needed was four families. We
all chipped in to buy a business license. That's it ~*POOF*~ an umbrella school.

interview
& FREE excerpt: "The Truth About Curricula"
 In this interview, Rebecca Rupp
shares her insights on setting up your curricula. She says, "My new book is different
from my previous homeschool books in that it is organized on a grade by grade (year by
year) basis and can be used to create complete annual programs of study for kids of all
ages." In the excerpt, "The Truth About Curricula," she points out that
"One of the primary advantages of homeschooling is the ability to bypass the decreed
norm. Homeschoolers can design their own curricula, assembling resources ad using
approaches that best suit their own childrens needs." Read much more about this
along with specific recommendations and ideas. Best of all, Rebecca Rupp is a regular
participating member of our online discussion group homeschoolzone. She has a reputation
for being a fountain of great tips and specific resources. In fact, she has graciously
offered to answer specific questions on our discussion group. |
