I don’t know many home schooled kids so genuinely interested, how do you account for the 8 hours of in-person social interaction/collaboration with other children you get with public/private school? Personally, I found that to be just as important as the subjects I was studying.

we're on our 3rd year with one in elementary and one in middle school. astra nova is a critical part of what we do it's a ton of work, but worth it Our 6th grader's schedule: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1E_Ez42XoaxuBx9FxG15azw9mfbCItNM_Ra_Kvw0nBvE/edit?usp=sharing

Wow this is so interesting! Don’t have kids yet but we talk all the time about how much unlearning we’ve had to do from the trad school system. Don’t want to add extra work but if you ever share how you’ve thought about the right home school edu I’d be super interested!
