Trent school

greenspun.com : LUSENET : Countryside : One Thread

Has anyone used either The Trent School or University of North Dakota to homeschool? My son convinced me last year to let him go to public school (he's 16) and it has been a complete disaster. Worst mistake I have ever made as a parent. Gradual loss of interest in learning, followed by bad attitude in general, lack of attendance, and a terrifying brush with a drug overdose. All I want is my son back. So I'm looking for curriculum suitable for a high school student. Any help is appreciated.

I have not heard of Trent but I am planning on useing The Calvert school.I am pretty sure they offer High School with colleges helping too.The web site I think is www.calvert school.com . IT is a little pricey but they supply all needed stuff,also if you sign up for teacher help your child gets a trans script from the school. Also you do not need to follow your state laws dealing w/ H.S . Give it look.

I haven't used either one of these. I have used several, but my favorites are Bob Jones and Abeka.Runkle geography is a big hit with my oldest. It teaches much more than geography, and he loves it. I order most of my books from CBD. You can find them at Christianbook.com , they have a wide variety of books. They also have homeschool specialists you can speak with if you call 1-978-977-5045. If I can help in any way please e-mail me.

Highly recommend the Abeka video courses for high school. John
