It’s September 6, and on this date in 1995, Cal Ripken Jr. played in his 2131st consecutive Major League Baseball game, breaking Lou Gehrig’s record which had stood since 1939. This remarkable achievement got us thinking about the different ways homeschool students can learn with us. Some homeschooling students choose to work every single day on their accredited middle school courses or accredited high school courses. They like the rhythm and the pacing of a regular schedule and it helps them do their best. Other students, however, might want or need to have a more irregular schedule. This is fine too and these students can also set themselves up for great academic success. We are happy to allow students to work entirely at their own pace, when and where it is convenient for them. You don’t have to do schoolwork for 2131 consecutive days to earn a high school diploma at home with American School. Enroll today and develop the pace and schedule that works best for you. We would be happy to have you as our student.
