Ever wondered what it’s like to homeschool your kids in Texas? This week for Red Kite<\/strong>,<\/a> I sat down with Holly, a local homeschooling mom, to find out!<\/p>\n

Holly got real with us about the struggle to juggle the lesson plans and socialization – and the occasional existential crisis – that comes with teaching your own children. Spoiler alert: turns out public school might take longer than necessary!<\/p>\n

And believe it or not, there are even scholarship opportunities and discounts on resources for homeschoolers, too. Let\u2019s get into it!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

    \n
  1. \n

    How long have you been homeschooling?<\/strong><\/p>\n

    a.\u00a0 I’ve homeschooled from the beginning, so five years. Seven, if you include the early years of preschool.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      \n
    1. \n

      Why did you choose homeschooling over traditional schooling?<\/strong><\/p>\n

      a.\u00a0 So many reasons! I didn\u2019t want my children to become a product of the public school system that dumbs kids down and churns them out like identical little robots who follow \u201cthe system\u201d. Education is not one-size-fits-all. Kids thrive in many different ways, and I wanted to be able to cater to my children\u2019s interests and needs. I wanted them to be independent thinkers who understand that learning is lifelong and something to enjoy, not dread.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

        \n
      1. \n

        What homeschooling philosophy or approach do you follow (e.g., classical, unschooling, Charlotte Mason, etc.)?<\/strong><\/p>\n

        a.\u00a0 For the early years, I leaned towards Waldorf. Once formal schooling started, we did Classical Conversations. It didn\u2019t take long for me to realize that was not how [my son] would learn best. So after a year of Classical, we switched. I am eclectic who leans towards Charlotte Mason and unschooling. I\u2019ve done both. I quickly realized I don\u2019t do well with being told to do x,y,z on Monday and a,b,c on Tuesday.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

        \"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

        \n

        \n

        <\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
          \n
        1. \n

          Were you a teacher before you decided to pursue this path? If so, what did you teach? If not, did you have to take any credential courses?<\/strong><\/p>\n

          a.\u00a0 No, I was not a teacher, and no formal courses are needed. There are so many programs and curriculums that it\u2019s fairly easy to help your kids learn without being formally trained. To be fair, I do have a natural teaching ability, though.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

            \n
          1. \n

            Do you follow a set curriculum, or do you design your own lesson plans?<\/strong><\/p>\n

            a.\u00a0 For reading and math, I do follow a set curriculum, but everything else I piece together from lots of different resources and make it my own.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

              \n
            1. \n

              What subjects do you find easiest – and most challenging – to teach?<\/strong><\/p>\n

              a.\u00a0 This is hard\u2026 both kids are dyslexic. I\u2019ve essentially had to teach myself how to be a reading specialist. It\u2019s literally been 5 years of research on my part trying to stay up-to-date with research and the science of reading. So that is by far the hardest.<\/p>\n

              I also find history hard, because I\u2019m committed to teaching real history and not the watered-down \u201cAmericanized\u201d history. Finding the balance of accuracy and then sensitivity to my children\u2019s ages and appropriateness for said ages has been challenging.<\/p>\n

              Art is easiest for me because I love it. Nature study has also been pretty easy, because it\u2019s fun and hands-on.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

              \"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

                \n
              1. \n

                What resources (books, websites, programs) do you rely on the most?<\/strong><\/p>\n

                a.\u00a0 I rely most on the Science of Reading body of knowledge – and teachers with Instagram accounts who utilize the Science – my Rooted in Language curriculum, the Charlotte Mason philosophy, and the other moms in our co-op.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

                  \n
                1. \n

                  How do you handle assessments and measure progress without traditional grading systems?<\/strong><\/p>\n

                  a.\u00a0 Essentially, I don\u2019t move on until my kids are proficient in something. Since it is just the two kids, it\u2019s pretty obvious what they know and don\u2019t know.<\/p>\n

                  For high school, I will start keeping records of everything for college purposes. Their reading and math curriculums have assessments, but everything else is just a matter of common sense on my part.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

                  \"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

                    \n
                  1. \n

                    What strategies do you use to balance homeschooling with other responsibilities (work, household, personal time)?<\/strong><\/p>\n

                    a.\u00a0 Most of the public school day is managing 30 kids. It only takes 2-3 hours to do school at home. There is so much free time for field trips, time with friends, and housework\/cooking\/errands. You would have to be on your phone all day – or just wasting time – to not fit those things in.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

                      \n
                    1. \n

                      How do you ensure your students have socialization opportunities?<\/strong><\/p>\n

                      a.\u00a0 Austin has a huge homeschool community, so socialization is easy. There are meetups, co-ops, etc. all over the Austin area. We joined a co-op to have consistency in activities and friends. So, the same families\/friends are together every week. On Thursday, we have a school day with our co-op, and then every week there is either a field trip or hike\/play date.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

                        \n
                      1. \n

                        What extracurricular activities or community programs do you participate in?<\/strong><\/p>\n

                        a.\u00a0 I guess I kind of answered this already. But the kids have also done some sports through the Y.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

                        \"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

                        \n
                        \n
                        \n
                        \n
                        <\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
                          \n
                        1. \n

                          Are you aware of financial aid or scholarships available to homeschooling families?<\/strong><\/p>\n

                          a.\u00a0 I have reached out to [coursework] companies directly and been met with very generous responses. I was unable to afford part of their reading program a year ago, and the company gladly gave me the resource for free. A lot of times you have to ask directly, but if you do, it usually pays off with some discount.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

                            \n
                          1. \n

                            Where do you go to find resources that normally a school district would provide?<\/strong><\/p>\n

                            a.\u00a0 You can go through your school district to get dyslexia testing and other special needs assistance\/programs. Because I pay taxes, I am entitled to those resources, even though my child doesn\u2019t attend public school. You do have to enroll your child, but it\u2019s specified that they do not actually attend.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

                              \n
                            1. \n

                              If you could improve one thing about financial aid or scholarship access for homeschoolers, what would it be?<\/strong><\/p>\n

                              a.\u00a0 I wish it were common knowledge and thereby eassier to access. You can join the Texas Homeschool Association to get all that information, but you have to pay a yearly fee. I would love it if it were easier to access without having to join the HSLDA.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

                              \"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

                              So there you have it – homeschooling in Texas, straight from the source! Holly has proven that you don\u2019t need a teaching degree or a bottomless supply of patience (though the latter probably helps) to give your kids an incredible education at home.<\/p>\n
