It’s November 12, and artist Auguste Rodin was born on this day in 1840. His best-known sculpture is called “The Thinker” and that name got us, well, thinking about the amount of thinking students do while taking our homeschool middle school courses or homeschool high school courses. Sometimes people are under the perception that homeschooling is easy and that students just breeze through the material with very little effort. While it is true that we allow students to work at their own pace, our courses are rigorous and written to standards. Students should expect to take 6-9 months to master the material in a full-year course and 4-5 months to master the material in a semester course. If that sounds like a lot of thinking, it might be, but our staff is here to support you every step of the way. Put on your thinking cap and enroll with American School today. You’ll be glad you did!
