Doin' it Homeschool

How did Riley and Coulter look for their first day of school this year?

This year at our house we decided that we are just too cool for school. Actually, after a lot of thought and research we decided that the small and understaffed school here in Wikieup was doing more harm than good for our kids. So, we followed suit with our neighboors and put the kids into a homeschooling online program. We never have been ones for homeschooling, but After 150 pounds of equipment arrived via UPS the other day, including enough gear for a science lab, 100 books, art supplies and math books the size of phone books (one for each semester), we decided that our kids are going to be geniuses. So what if they are a little socially awkward, they will be too busy ruling the world to notice.
(They will be going back to regular school as soon as we move.)

Lots of people are doing homeschool. They have co-ops that let them work with othe kids...that should help with the socialization.
