About this Talk
Homeschooling high school can feel overwhelming—but it doesn’t have to. In this practical and hope-filled session, we’ll explore the unique developmental needs of high schoolers and how to meet them with grace, structure, and purpose. Learn what your teen really needs to know—both inside and outside of the classroom—and how to guide them with confidence toward graduation and beyond.
Topics we’ll cover include:
- What’s happening in the mind and heart of a high schooler—and how to parent and teach with wisdom through these years
- How to build a four-year plan that gives your teen direction and gives you peace of mind
- Where students typically are with language development—and how to help them communicate clearly and write effectively (featuring Sarah Gabel)
- Life skills every teen needs before graduation: driving, budgeting, time management, responsibility, and independence
- A fresh look at Consumer Math, Principles of Algebra, and Language Lessons for a Living Education—and how Master Books helps teens apply what they’re learning to real life
- Encouragement for moms who feel unsure about teaching high school
Whether you're just beginning to think about high school or already deep in the journey, this session will help you homeschool the high school years with clarity, confidence, and a clear finish line in sight.
