tinytherese Posted February 5, 2010 Share Posted February 5, 2010 (edited) I went through Catholic school. It was great academically, but certainly not catechesis wise. I've thought of homeschooling my kids, but I don't know how good at it I'd be especially in regards to math and science-my worst subjects.

I started homeschooling when I was in 5 grade so I never had a chance to "get ahead" if you will. But that is awesome that it works for yoU!

I went to public for 2 years. We found alot of Christian support from the public schools actaully.! [/quote] I didn't really like elementary school, since I was teased there and I didn't feel like they did anything about it. Socially my favorite was junior hight, where we were a close knit class where I got friends that I still have to this day. I also liked High school academically. I got into a good school that had teachers that knew their stuff, so it was great knowledge-wise. I felt a lot of pressure though, there were a lot of tests and homework which really drained me, and the milieu was not bad which makes up for the stress because that would just be the worst. One of my friends chose private school instead of going to one of those schools. But the thing is it's different here than in America - what matters the most is your grade point average not which school, interests, extra curricular activities and so on. So even though it's not supposed to be like that, the better grades were harder to acheive in my school because the students are measured against each other too and people who got in had to have good grades from junior high. Well I'm babbling. Socially high school wasn't all that fun though, it was nothing like junior high and I found it harder to connect to my class mates. Too much talk about drinking and sex. Homeschooling isn't illegal here because that would be infringing on human rights, neither is private school but the government is making it beaver dam hard. When you want to move on in life and you don't have a mainstream degree it's difficult. And the government gives less money to private school, it isn't a per head deal. There's a Catholic school in Oslo that's having monetary problems just because of that, they have state imposed rules that say they have to fix the building up in several ways and they don't have the money to do that. I really hope the school stays. Edited February 5, 2010 by Hilde Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tridenteen Posted February 5, 2010 Share Posted February 5, 2010 JMJ Princess Gianna, how are going to get a diploma? I am curious, since we chose Seton for high school so I can get a diploma. It doesn't make sense, please explain. My mom is going to kind of pick and choose next year, several families in the community do it, and finish school a month early with no effort, so we might try that approach! I never was a fan of schools. I attended them till 4th grade, and by then we had enough of school systems to pull out. I am having the time of my life homeschooling, since I can work on my own schedule. Princess Gianna, it sounds like we should go to the patio and have party drinks so we can talk about homeschooling some more! Thanks for everyones prayers for Brianna. I am calling her family in a few minutes to check up on her. I really hope she is doing well...And if Arpy "isn't here" still, what curriculum did you use?
