Guys, I have a quick question for you. What's the purpose of education? I ask this question all the time when I'm doing live workshops, and everybody kind of pauses—they haven't really thought about it too much. So, I want to give you three important purposes for education, regardless of what level your kids are at, what methodology you use, whether you're homeschool, public, or private school—this is across the board. As we are in the fourth Industrial Revolution, it is such an important concept to get a hold of because our kids are going to live and work in this world. You've heard me talk about this so much before. There's a blurring of lines between physical, biological, and digital spheres now. This is the world of work and the world of education our kids are going to live in. I have an interesting stat for you: 85% of the jobs in 2030 haven't been invented yet. Let that sink in. So, understanding the purpose of education is more important than ever before because, like every industrial revolution, some jobs are just going to go kaput, and other industries and jobs are just going to come out of nowhere. When's the last time you used a cartwright? Nobody even knows what a cartwright was or is—those are the people who make the wheels for a cart or a buggy. But once the automotive industry took the world by storm, guess what? That whole industry just went kaput, bottom up. We're in another industrial revolution, and it's going to happen, and we're seeing it already. So, what are the three purposes of education? Listen in to Lisa Nehring to learn.

**Podcast: Not That Hard to Homeschool Highschool** *Episode Title: Embracing Parental Responsibility and Unveiling the True Cost of Education* *Host: Lisa Nehring* **Episode Description:** In this enlightening episode of "Not That Hard to Homeschool Highschool," we delve deep into the topic of parental responsibility and explore the true cost of education. Host Lisa Nehring shares her passion for homeschooling, especially during the high school years, as she highlights the benefits and advantages it brings to families. **Show Notes:** *Intro:* - Welcome back, homeschooling families and eager learners, to another episode of "Not That Hard to Homeschool Highschool." I'm your host, Lisa Nehring, and today, we're going to embark on a thought-provoking journey, uncovering the essence of parental responsibility and the genuine cost of education. *Segment 1: The True Cost of Education:* - As we often do in society, we primarily associate the cost of education with financial expenses – tuition fees, textbooks, and other school-related expenses. However, let's take a step back and reconsider the broader scope of cost. - Education costs extend far beyond financial implications, encompassing factors such as time, energy, and the emotional well-being of both the students and their families. - The traditional education system demands considerable time investment from students, leaving little room for pursuing passions, hobbies, or even quality family time. - The emotional cost of education is often overlooked but significant, as many students experience stress, anxiety, and sometimes even burnout due to the pressure to conform to standardized norms. *Segment 2: Embracing Parental Responsibility:* - Homeschooling presents an alternative path that allows parents to take back their vital role in their children's education. - Parents can tailor the curriculum to suit their child's unique learning style, interests, and pace, fostering a love for learning and a deeper understanding of subjects. - By homeschooling, parents can instill important values, ethics, and life skills that might not receive the same attention in traditional educational settings. - The increased involvement of parents in their child's education nurtures a stronger bond and a deeper sense of trust and support within the family unit. *Segment 3: Homeschooling through High School: A Great Choice for Families:* - Homeschooling during high school offers a myriad of benefits, including flexibility in scheduling and course selection, enabling students to explore their passions and concentrate on areas where they excel. - High school homeschooling encourages self-motivation and responsibility, traits that prove invaluable in college and future careers. - Individualized attention from parents fosters a supportive learning environment, helping students overcome challenges and explore various subjects in greater depth. - Homeschooling opens up opportunities for students to engage in real-world experiences, internships, and community involvement, enhancing their personal growth and development. *Conclusion:* - As we wrap up this episode, let's remember that homeschooling, especially through high school, offers families a remarkable opportunity to embrace parental responsibility and reimagine the true cost of education. - By investing our time, energy, and passion into our children's learning journey, we can create an educational experience that is truly transformative and empowering. - Thank you for joining me, Lisa Nehring, on this insightful episode of "Not That Hard to Homeschool Highschool." Until next time, happy homeschooling!

Doug and his wife, Sam, make a big decision to pull their kids from public school, and to home school them instead. What's wrong with public school? Are they inviting social problems into their kids' lives? What are the potential benefits and dangers of public schools? Why not just enroll in private school instead? And what's the Bible's viewpoint on home schooling? Pesach and special guest Lisa Nehring of True North Academy dig into what drove them to this decision, and encourage Sam and Doug to share some of the hard conversations that led them to this important step. If you care about your kids' education - even if you are determined not to make any changes - you won't want to miss this thought-provoking, enlightening, and fun conversation.
Show Notes- Is it Time to Pivot? Tis the season to take stock of the year before, dream about the year ahead and realize maybe you're a bit off track in some areas. It's a time when we realize some seasons are over and new ones are about to begin. It's no different in homeschooling. It's seasonal. And what may have worked last year, last month or even last week, just might not work for now or for what's ahead. Join True North Homeschool Academy Director, Lisa Nehring as she talks about when it might be a good time to pivot, how to pivot and gives you some pro-tips on pivoting, based on her 30 years of homeschooling experience. So we learned to do the homeschool Pivot. Pivoting means to shift to a new strategy. Pivoting can mean big, overarching changes, or small micro changes. It can apply to one kid, or one subject or everybody.

I don't want my vision for my family's future. My vision is skewed. My motives are often selfish and my imagination of what could be is often way too small. I want new vision, but I want it to be God's vision for our family. He is the divine Way-Maker. He's the great Vision-Caster, truly the Master Artist of our family, if we allow Him to be. I don't want to be heading toward my own goals and agenda. I don't want my vision to have come from me. I want to be heading towards GOD's vision for my family.

"Our kids need to know that SUCCESS IS IN THE JOURNEY AS MUCH AS IN THE END ACHIEVEMENT. Falling down and getting back up are important milestones in the journey." Val Harrison, The Practically Speaking MOMThree Steps to Teaching Your Kids the Success Habit of Goal Setting and Goal-mapping Skills.1. Pray over your goal-setting before, after, and during the process.We want God to be our partner in life. He knows us; He knows our circumstances; He knows our future. He knows all of those things better than we do. Having Him as our partner in all of these decisions and all o f these plans is so critical. Ultimately we want His will. We don't want our will. He can do this so much better than we can. I need Him to direct my life and I want to teach my children to allow Him to direct their lives also. We shouldn't expect that for their future behavior if we don't teach them how today. "His ways are not our ways and His thoughts are not our thoughts. As far as the heavens are above the earth, so far are His thoughts above our thoughts and His ways above our ways." Isaiah 55:8.2. Teach them to WRITE DOWN their goals and place them around the house where they can see them regularly.3. Include a TIMELINE for achievable little steps as a roadmap to the big goal. If you only have the big end goal, it may stay too unattainable. You and your kids need some little successes to celebrate along the way! Let's learn how!Quotes from the episode:"Even if we never reach the end goal, we have succeeded by making progress."

We are continuing our conversation in part 2 on the topic of high school credits. I've been talking a lot lately about homeschooling high school because this season can feel particularly intimidating. After graduating 7 of our 8 kids so far, I can tell that these can and should be some of the best years of your family's homeschooling journey! There is much to be excited about and there are also many experiences our kids have during this time that can be counted as credits on their transcripts! Today, Lisa Nehring from True North Academy will be helping us recognize not only WHY we can enjoy these years, but HOW by simply recognizing life experiences as worthy credits for our kids' transcripts!
