Homeschooling the High School years can be intimidating! It doesn't have to scare you away, though!
I love having a quick reference available at my fingertips whenever I'm tackling a project. As you tackle your new school year (tackle the year, not the student!), here's a quick reference list of some of our most popular posts explaining how to homeschool high school. In case you don't know, 7 Sisters Innovative Homeschool Helps is Allison, Kym, Marilyn, Sabrina, Sara, and Vicki, and we have homeschooled our own 27 kids as well as hundreds of others in co-ops, homeschooling day-schools, and other cooperative homeschooling ventures.

====================================
Have you tried one of our literature study guides yet?
These affordable ebooks (only $3.99 each) are a great introduction to 7 Sisters' curriculum. Written by Sabrina Justison and Vicki Tillman, MA with collaboration by Dr. Gerald R. Culley, Ph.D., these guides help you and your student get the most out of a work of classic literature.
Each literature study guide includes background information, vocabulary, discussion questions, supplemental resources, and answer key. They take the lesson-planning out of English for the duration of the book you are reading.
Download one and see how helpful a literature study guide can be!
Click the book title to order the study guide for The Hobbit, British Poetry, Antigone, Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, A Christmas Carol, Sense and Sensibility, The Invisible Man, Animal Farm, T. S. Eliot's Cats, or A Tale of Two Cities.
From a homeschool mom who reviewed the literature study guide for A Tale of Two Cities:
"Some time ago on 7 Sisters, you gave your "Tale of Two Cities" study guide as a freebie and asked for feedback. Just wanted to say that it looks fantastic and helpful. Love the questions, love the vocab, love the writing suggestions."

Meet a sister:
Marilyn holds a BS in Physical Therapy from New York University. Homeschooling her six children since 1990, she has dealt with a variety of learning styles and learning abilities - from gifted to learning disabled. Three of her six children are adopted and some had emotional issues that interfered with learning.
Since 1998, she has been a single parent and has continued to homeschool despite the challenges that situation offers. Marilyn and Vicki Tillman founded MEK/TEK and Mt. Sophia Academy, and they also helped found Elijah School, a traditional five day per week school for students who have learning differences that were difficult to reach in a homeschool.
