The Freedom Behind Educational Pursuits

Educational Pursuits

We came to a realization in our children's lives (and in our own) that education is something that happens continuously in our lives.  It is not something that takes place 12 plus years in a classroom.  Home education is a way of life and it is not for the weak and unmotivated.   Contrary to popular belief, home educators do not stay in the 4 walls of a house and keep their children from experiencing the outside world.  Home education is freeing.  It is a rapidly growing educational pursuit that envelopes a lifestyle of learning in the real world.  Here is a sample of our educational experience:
