My homeschooled girls are now up to 7th grade, and there isn't anything about school that I miss. I'm beginning to think the same about college.

We homeschooled through 9th grade. We used the "dual credit" program at the local community college from 10th through 12th grade. Completely skipped high school, and had an AA, tuition free, at the same time he would have graduated high school. (I was more than happy to use the dual credit program because my head was exploding from trying to teach the higher maths and sciences, LOL.)

It worked wonderfully. Now he's 18 and transferring in as a Junior to our local state university. He'll live at home (the campus is only 4 miles from our home), and has qualified for the in state 100 percent tuition scholarship. So the Bachelor's degree will have been earned tuition free. I'm not complaining.
