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.

gonext.gif (388 bytes)interview & FREE excerpt: "The Truth About Curricula"
rupp.jpg (4849 bytes)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 children’s 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.
