We believe:

  • homeschooling high school should be fun

  • it’s time to decolonize the curriculum

  • learning is a lifelong project

If you agree, home/school/life academy’s online classes may be the perfect fit for you.

Parents say this curriculum makes the best dinner table conversations. Students say it prepared them well for college and reminded them how fun learning can be. We say it’s past time to decolonize the curriculum and build a learning plan for high school that is fun and relaxed while also being academically rigorous.

For secular homeschoolers who want a fun, decolonized, rigorous way to homeschool high school, home/school/life is the progressive high school curriculum that does the academic heavy lifting so that you can enjoy the fun stuff. Unlike other high school curriculums, home/school/life’s Deep Thought curriculum teaches students how to learn, not just what to learn and makes big academics surprisingly fun for the whole family.


Class subscriptions start August 1.

Classes follow a subscription model, so you pay monthly to access the classes you want. Monthly subscription payments are based on a nine-month calendar, so once you have paid nine months, you can continue to access courses in your subscription until the course is completed.

Join our email list to get an invitation to sign up when classes go live (plus a coupon to save you $50/month for your first year).

And, of course, if you finish early, your payments end when you do.
