Free Homeschool Courses

K-12 Free Homeschool offers free core homeschool courses for families that are homeschooling independently or privately. This is not the K12 Virtual schools that are so popular today. See their site for more information. This is a wonderful opportunity for families who cannot afford books and materials. They do not charge for their core classes but they do charge for electives.

Free Wi-Fi

Check here for Free Wi-Fi at restaurants/retail locations in your neighborhood. Many public libraries are also offering free wi-fi. While we were traveling to Boston last spring, we were able to get library cards and wi-fi access at the Boston downtown public library. We were able to enjoy a beautiful historic building and check our email too!

Free K-12 Online Schools

If you are looking for a free online homeschool program, you might want to try K12. They offer a couple options, online school and textbook school. This is a good alternative to private homeschooling because many parents don't have the time or desire to put together a course of study for their kids. Parents know that they want their children to be home schooled and K12 does the hard work for them. I would suggest contacting them and exploring their website to see if it will be a good fit for your student and for your family.

K-12 offers free online homeschooling for the following states:

Alaska, Arizona, Arkansas, California, District of Columbia, Chicago (IL), Colorado, Florida, Hawaii, Georgia, Idaho, Indiana, Kansas, Minnesota, New jersey, Nevada, Ohio, Oregon, Pennsylvania , South Carolina, Texas, Utah, Virginia, Washington, Wisconsin, Wyoming
