NCAA Prefers Independent Homeschoolers

HS PE/Health

If your child loves sports, and would like to continue in college, it's a good idea to do a little research on the NCAA. The rules change over time, and you have to follow the rules, even if they change. For example, the NCAA recently gave a statement that it will no longer accept coursework from 24 different virtual schools that are affiliated with k12 Inc.

Independent Homeschool Support

Independent HS
