In Florida, we have to file the Intent to Homeschool letter just once for each child and their work is evaluated once per year by an actively certified teacher. We send one "portfolio" per subject per child, and we get to choose the subjects. This year we did math, science, US history, social studies, culinary arts, and computer science. We love it! We are not required to test until college entry, but many people do around 10th grade since home schoolers tend to start college in 11th grade Lol. It gets easier every year so I'm glad you aren't panicking.
I have a 23 yr old who owns her own business and working on a Masters in Agriculture, and a 20 yr old who is now a special-needs teacher. The 16 yr old has been interning for acouple years in businesses around our community, with a heavy interest in culinary arts. The 14 yr old and 10 yr old are great around the farm and with computers too! After home schooling for 20+ years, I can definitely say it's worth it! Just keep doing what you're doing🌻👍
