Home school update

We are just about finished with our first year of home schooling.

Debby has been using the Abeka (http://www.abeka.com) kindergarten and third grade programs this year, along with the Abeka DVD program. They also were part of two home school co-op groups and did gymnastics, karate, boy scouts, field trips, etc. They were actually doing a little too much and plan to scale back some next year.

Overall the home schooling thing is working out great for our family. John's standardized test scores were up and the kids were healthier this year too.

Home schooling is not easy, Debby did a fantastic job this last year!

We all learned quite a bit this year and Debby has already ordered the home school materials for next year.
