Homeschooling and Military Life - Ep. 51

Milspouse Matters

On this episode, I’m sharing about our homeschooling journey, and how it fit in with military life!

Let’s talk about some of the common fears and misconceptions, and some of my favorite resources and tips from over 20 years as a homeschooling mom.

We homeschooled our four now grown children, who’ve all gone on to college and careers. I embraced a hands-on and literature-based method of learning and education, and combining kids in studies where possible. It was also important to us to set our kids up for success and independence.

Our military family homeschooled all four of our now grown children. Our oldest child moved 3 times during his high school years, and our youngest moved so often that staying in one place for 2 years seemed like a long time.

With all the changes and challenges of military life, their education was one of the constants! One benefit that came out of our decision to homeschool was the flexibility to PCS at any time without disrupting their education.
