Today’s Birthday: Sir Arthur Conan Doyle

by | May 22, 2023 | New Blog

It’s May 22, and author Sir Arthur Conan Doyle was born on this date in 1859. His best known character is Sherlock Holmes, and so today’s blog will attempt to debunk two mysteries and myths regarding homeschooling. One common mystery is if homeschool courses are accredited. American School is accredited by MSA-CESS, Ai and NCPSA, which are regional and international accrediting bodies that accredit schools across the country and around the world. Another myth is that homeschool students have to work alone and get no support outside their homes. American School staff members are here to assist our students during regular business hours, and we want to provide students with personal attention in distance education however we can. If you’re looking for top-notch education at an affordable cost, let us take the mystery out of your search. Enroll with American School today!

Homeschooling has taught me a lot of new things. It has taught me self-discipline and made me take my studies more seriously than before. I have learned to study properly. The books and materials were very helpful. It is a fun experience to do homeschooling. Many people are amazed to know that I did homeschooling. This has opened and changed a lot of people’s minds.

American School has more to offer than any public school. Two of my children, two of my grandchildren, and one niece completed their high school education with American School, and my sister and I are enrolled at the present time.

I learned a lot, and the skills are helping me in my college classes.

The most important thing I learned was how to schedule my time and organize my work. The study guides helped to show me how much work to do at one time. I’m glad to be part of American School.

instructors and the overall program. I will recommend American School to anyone interested.
