  1. Bumping. Any feedback on Université Sainte-Anne’s summer program?
  2. I know this is a really old thread but since I had the same question, I thought I'd share this article I found: https://www.eschoolnews.com/2021/11/19/vhs-learning-students-again-outperform-national-average-pass-rates-for-advanced-placement-exams/?fbclid=IwAR1D6qPVyUdImubNnJAqQXE9ahTALzz7_WWDxbzraJIqgOKlsi_CVc5st3w I know our public school "gives" a teacher in exchange for a certain number of VHS seats. They are not paying the published tuition. It's more of a barter.
  3. In reply to the OP, my kiddo did AoPS PreAlgebra, then Ch 1-14 of AoPS Intro to Algebra. Kiddo then tried out the LPS, where it turns out "Algebra II" is largely a repeat of material covered just in AoPS Chapters 1-14. Kiddo is likely to return to homeschooling next year and, despite not being 'mathy', is looking forward to returning to AoPS because it explains why things work not just how to do it. Last year when we were frustrated with our slowing pace through Intro to Algebra and with the LPS math placement test looming, I was grateful when someone pointed out the sequencing the the AoPS material. In their own class sequence, they repeat Intro to Algebra chapters 10-13 in two courses. Those chapters are really dense! Introduction to Algebra A - Introduction to Algebra, Chapters 1-13 Introduction to Counting & Probability - all of Introduction to Counting & Probability Introduction to Number Theory - all of Introduction to Number Theory Introduction to Algebra B - Introduction to Algebra, Chapters 10-22 Introduction to Geometry, then Intermediate Algebra, etc
  4. Can't recommend a class, but when it comes time to review Heimler's History on YouTube is awesome!
  5. I'm getting ready to do the same thing. Were you able to get admitted? FYI, I know there's an active forum for APUSH teachers on facebook.
  6. Wow, I had no idea such a thing existed. Thank you for posting! We keep half-joking that the kiddo will study at the Sorbonne.
  7. Thank you, that link to Slader is awesome! Just by happenstance the textbook we chose for Geology is also by Pearson/Savvas and its chapter quizzes are only online, so I'm compelled to navigate the publisher's bureaucratic maze. I'll post if I get it figured out. A discussion on the High School forum referenced labs from Biology Corner. So I'll compare those labs to Home Biology Experiments and to the labs that go with the Miller Levine text book. The availability of required supplies will obviously factor in ... and I keep reminding myself this is only 8th grade.
  8. Check out The American Yawp. You can purchase a hard copy. There are suggested essay assignments and exam questions, but no answer sheets. However there are amateur recordings of the text on YouTube; I've been listening to them while I do chores in order to keep up with the material.
  9. I had originally planed to use CK-12 Biology for High School for Spring Semester but as I start to do real prep I'm less enamored. I'm taking a second look at Miller Levine Biology from Pearson/Savvas, because we're really liking Pearson/Savvas' Essentials of Geology. To use Miller Levine, did you just get the Student Textbook or did you also get the Teacher's Edition? Any experience with their optional Lab Manuals? Did you use the 2019 Edition (Bee) or 2017 (Macaw)?
