Every September, millions of kids across the country sling a backpack over their shoulders and head out to catch the bus for school. While these children are sitting in a classroom or waiting in the lunch line, an estimated two million kids are learning from their comfort of their home, according to the National Home Education Research Institute.

It’s easy to spend a lot on things like school supplies, curriculum materials, books, craft supplies, field trips, and activities if you’re not keeping an eye on the bottom line. Whether you’re a newbie or a seasoned pro, keeping your budget in check is crucial for every homeschooling parent. This article details how to save money on supplies, curriculum, and field trips.

A transcript for an appearance by Celeste Land on the Kojo Nnamdi Show where she discussed the homeschooling movement. Celeste is VaHomeschoolers' Director of Government Affairs. The program touched on the many and varied reasons why families choose homeschooling, from concerns with the school environment to a desire for a tailored educational approach or a wish to keep the family at the center of a child’s upbringing. The show also addressed a common stereotype of homeschoolers by pointing out that while many families that choose home education consider their faith to be a very important part of their lives, homeschooling families come from diverse religious backgrounds, and religious homeschoolers do not necessarily choose homeschooling for religious reasons. A great example of how to interact with the media for a positive discussion about home education. Also available via podcast at Homeschooling Goes Mainstream.
