    Don’t let doubts and fears hold you back. The truth is that parents are uniquely qualified to help children thrive.

    The best news: making the switch midyear is easier than you think, especially when you have a checklist that shows you how to create your own action plan.

Begin with a Gentle Shift Rather Than a Giant Leap

Leaving the school system feels big, but each step is small and simple when you have a framework to follow.

Think of this checklist as your get-started guide from a homeschool mom who’s been where you are:

  • Get to know your state’s homeschool rules on Day 1.
  • Jot down your big-picture goals on Day 2.
  • Choose your child’s Math and Language Arts levels on Day 3. 
  • Outline a plan for History and Science on Day 4.
  • Set up your family’s daily schedule on Day 5.

Plus, discover how to instantly download curriculum courses for FREE!

  • Watch Your Child's Love of Learning Grow

    Hi, I’m Jenny Phillips, founder of The Good and the Beautiful. When I became a homeschool mom in 2010, I longed for curriculum that met all of my family’s needs.

    I tried lots of language arts courses, but there was always something missing, so I created my own. 

    That act of faith grew to become an award-winning curriculum company powered by a team of educators who value family connections, academic success, and joyful learning.

    Today, our free resources, core subjects, electives, and reading books have been used by hundreds of thousands of families across the world. 

    But one thing remains unchanged.

    I still light up when parents share stories of how homeschooling rekindled their child’s love of learning!

    In less than a week from now, you could be ready to change the way your child feels about language arts, math, history, science, and so much more.

    It would be an honor to help you get started.

Encouragement from Parents Who've Made the Switch

“I CAN teach my son with a learning disability . . . I’m his MOM. We’ve been homeschooling since 2021 and I wish I would’ve started years ago, when my heart was wanting to. I let my fears and worries stall me from making that leap.”

— Michelle DM.

“[Homeschooling changed] our lives for the positive in every way. That it’s not as hard as it seems. That you can go at your own pace. That it is customized learning at its best. That there are so many resources. It’s amazing!”

— Jessica L.

“Everything we do is a learning experience and homeschooling isn’t just core subjects but teaching life skills. Give yourself grace when you fall behind or your child doesn’t learn things as fast as others. It’s a journey not a race. So make it an adventure and have fun.”

— Sara M.

“I wish I would have known that it would restore my kids' confidence, that it would bring peace and order to our home. That I didn’t need to worry so much, that there was more than one way to accomplish the end goal, etc. There was so much I wish I knew, because I would have started sooner.”

— Sara K.

“That it would be the best decision we ever made. We had some challenges, but hands down the best thing. I wouldn’t have worried so much about doing “enough” and “getting it right.” It all works out in the long term. One graduated and in college and second one half way through high school.”

— Jennifer C.

“You don’t need 6+ hours of lessons for them to succeed. Short lessons that catch their attention are actually more beneficial and easily retained.”

— Jaclyn JB.
