Is a high school homeschool curriculum necessary?

My Comments: Although I can understand where this author is coming from, I don't agree that you need expert advice when homeschooling high school. If you have been homeschooling your child all the way through their school years, or even if you haven't, you as a parent have a pretty good idea of what they need. If you have no clue, then you can do some reading and research and ask fellow homeschoolers if they have any advice for you.

A packaged curriculum is often comforting to the parent but is not always what is in the best interest of the student. Make sure you look at your child's learning style, interests, and plans for the future before you start deciding on a high school homeschool curriculum or course of study.

If you look at these aspects of your child and know what kind of books or curriculum you will need for this child, then when you come across it, you will know that it is the right fit for your child. Don't try to fit your child into a curriculum - know what you're looking for and fit the curriculum or books to your child.

This is not just so that they will be happy, but so that they will have a fulfilling experience and enjoy learning and pursue their goals and dreams better than they could do in a school setting.
