As a teacher and school principal for over 30 years, and having helped scores of families in the homeschool community in Pennsylvania, I have had these conversations many times and am confident that what I share here will help you get started on this next phase of homeschooling.

Instructor
I have been a high school math and science teacher and school administrator for over 30 years. In Pennsylvania, where I live, homeschool students meet with an evaluator once a year to review and certify their progress, and I have worked with hundreds of homeschool students over the years. I also have five children of my own, who at various times have been homeschooled or been enrolled in the school where I teach. I created and manage a website with resources to support schools, families, and students who use the PACE curriculum.
