Why
Latter-day Saints Homeschool
Parents who want to strengthen their families know they
must have more time with their children and they must
protect them from false teachings and toxic or dangerous
social situations. Home school makes it
happen!
--more--
Homeschooling from the Inside Out
Home schooling
begins with an examination of the family: Who are we?
What are our individual and collective strengths,
talents, desires? What do we need to learn? How can we
serve? How can we continually upgrade?
--more--
A
Saintly Education
You can hold a
textbook-based, secular classroom school in your home,
or you can give your children something much better -- a
Saintly education. That means every study begins
with what the prophets and the scriptures have to say
about the subject.
Socialization
Latter-day Saints
home school because it's the best thing to do for their
children and because they want to strengthen the family.
The socialization gained at public schools today can be
measured by walking the halls of a jr. high or visiting
a high school assembly. There is no better
socializing organization than the family.
Getting Into College
Colleges love
home-schooled students because those students are self-
motivated and have a desire to learn. In fact, many
colleges actively recruit homeschoolers. And there are
also many good alternatives to college.
The State and the Family
The struggle has always between the
individual vs. the state, as people given power almost
always move toward unrighteous dominion. Families
must maintain their God-given right and responsibility
to direct the education of their children.
