HOW WE HOMESCHOOL A HIGH SCHOOLER AND KEEP IT EXCITING

First . . . . I love your videos. Thank you!

Yay!! I have been waiting for this patiently👀😸

So happy to have this info .. we are taking a year off starting December 2022 as a family of 4 also. And I can't wait to fave that family time together

Hi,
I may be missed this part at the long vlog...
I was wonder as follow your footage how are you going to finance eduction at a top tear university.
In Israel where I'm living, higher education costs almost nothing and most if not all unjversities obtain higher rducation rates (Universities, not colleages where there are few education levels), in europe for europinian it actualy for free.
A top tear university suppose to cost furtune... And I am talking about hundred tousand of us$ for graduation degree.
Thanks and sorry for being rude.

Thank you for the info! Extremely helpful.

Very interesting video. I may have missed it but you frequently refer to "AP french" or AP some other subject. What does the AP stand for?

What online classes did you use? What is the name of the programs you logged into for the high schooler

I didn't understand on how much study both kids were doing but am happy Avalon has applied herself to date. Getting into a University via your current method is something I didn't know was possible. Voice lessons is welcome with her because you waisted your money there and am really happy you didn't sing in this video. (Whew) The problem we had in school after getting back to the U.S. was some other students felt insulted because they did not similar backgrounds as us. This happened in the early -mid '60's in the deep south. A story to be shared later. A school with an international student body will be the right fit. Hope you all select a goodern'.........
You mentioned earlier that this video will be made and that more are to follow. Looking forward to them and again... Thank You for not singing ..................... enjoy

I just want to say I think you are doing an amazing job of their education! So much better than the average. My daughter is in her final year of school and is going to be studying in the U.S. A. next year. I wish her education had looked like this.

Thought your family eas finely on the water and sailing. Should have known better

You have won me over!!!! Let me tell you... You are an impressive mom!! What is your email? Impressive impressive impressive! I am Will's second cousin.... I'd love to meet up with you guys some day....

Extremely informative…. More information than I ever got from any other channel. Kudos to Avalon and Largo for their ethics. 👍👍👍🙂🙂🙂

Great Video! I've watched all your videos in the RV, & just graduated our Homeschool Kid #5. I can vouch for the rigor AND heart-led homeschool path Jessica's described. It's both the academics AND the lifestyle. I'm astounded at Avalon's college goals, but our kids have all transitioned well to engineering/nursing with scholarships. Just giving a big Thumbs up. Jessica did a phenomenal job explaining all of this . . . and all the flashbacks kept things fun!

Go Avalon !!!!

Half way, still watching. Original Work from Home family with an angle! my children would have been great in having fun, sailing, beer making, bread making, and cheese making. Ps your way is way way better! No expert! Good Job! very helpful I think for others, I am missing the sailing, but I can wait :-)

It is impossible to be 110%. Your daughter should had corrected you. If you do the numbers 110% = (bs) lol. True.

Home schooling is widely accepted and i for one feel that the children (not kids) receive much more information in an open environment.

First, am so glad we have our kids education behind us and they are off the payroll. Whew! Your insights ought to be mandatory watching for anyone who is interested in doing homeschool as I've known a few who are not equipped to making it a successful experience and thus adversely impacting their kids education and potential future. The pandemic pushed many into thinking homeschool is the way to go as opposed to other more 'traditional avenues' of learning at home. Those folks need to watch this. Congrats to you and to the kids for a job well done (and you're not done yet). Happy sailing.

Jessica, you've gone beyond in explaining and sharing your lovely family's journey. Thank you so much for being so genuine. I've homeschooled my family for about 26 years and definitely consider our style eclectic as well. My hubby and I are now travelling with and caring for our 12 yr old grandson and we are hoping to launch into world travelling after having rv'd fulltime around the States for 3 years. Seriously considering joining you for the Galapagos trip next year! Enjoy and be well🤗

Thanks. I am actually shocked that the cost of online schooling ranges between 10 to 15 thousand, considering that in person private high school is around 17k. I would love to see your school budget, if u are willing to share.

Just for price comparison my top rated high school was a small 1000 student catholic college prep and the tuition is $13,200 per year.

I listened as much as possible but it seems like this is a promotional video for Avalon and Universities. Your children are intelligent without having to push it on. She will do fine.

Wow!

Really really inspiring :-)

I love this video. Thanks Jessica!! A question for you...what do you mean by Avalon testing for Johns Hopkins as a 4-5th grader? Thanks again for the comprehensive video!!

Thank you so much for the detailed information! We will most likely transition to home schooling this year, and although we aren't ready to take the leap to full time travel just yet, hearing that it can work is very inspiring!

Bravo on your amazing video, so helpful. Curious though, are you considering Universities outside of the US?

Too much talking.

Hello! Im very new here!
your sister introduced about the channel at cafe in Santorini :)

To me, paying for all online classes is a very specific way of homeschooling (and an expensive one). In fact, I wouldn't really call that homeschool, it's really more online schooling a la carte.

I think what you are doing and what you shared is amazing! The kids are doing great and in so many ways I wish my youngest would have done this she would have excelled. The only reason she didn't was my fear not hers. Think about that, how powerful is that. My fear not hers. Thanks for sharing. I hope others are as brave as you - as soon as possible. Hugs from the states.

Love love love both videos you did on the kid’s education. We’ve been really struggling to figure out what a balance between homeschooling, unschooling and worldschooling could look like and you helped me visualize how this could work so clearly. Thanks so much for this incredible and generous content. Your kids are amazing!

Sitting here single n no kids watching the whole thing trying to understand what my future family will be going through because we will be a world traveling fam also

How do you find classes for high school credits that universities will accept

Thank you for this. You have gave me great ideas for my dream of becoming a live aboard with two kids. I love the idea about starting their own business and entrepreneurship! I have unschooled, homeschooled online, and in person school; i will take alot of this and run with it! Thank you! I wish you fair winds and calm seas!

Oh my goodness! This video on homeschooling a high schooler was fabulous! I am excited to search out some of the options you mentioned.
We are also eclectic and our 8th grader has been homeschooling since the day 3rd grade ended. I appreciate how you have crafted your homeschool to instill a love of learning, which is so very important to our family, too! ❤️ Thanks for referring me here today from the FB post. 🥰

I wish my education had looked like this back in the day. Fantastic way to learn. And amazing parents to enable this. (Just discovered your channel and am busy catching up with your lives).
