Scrub Jay Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 I found on an old forum post (at Mothering, I think) that WP will offer secular versions of their notebooks for virtual charter school use. I put in an email asking them but I'm impatient - anyone here have experience with that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mandy in TN Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 Call them. They are great over the phone. :) Mandy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chrysalis Academy Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 Nope, but I "secularized" mine by crossing out a bit on the first two lessons. I think it's pretty much secular other than that. It might mention "God created the horse to . . . " in a few places, but dd just flies right past that . . . (Not sure if you were asking b/c you wanted to know about using it secularly, or if you need it to be secular for your charter. If the latter, my response is not relevant, of course . . . ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That old post I had read was wrong in how they phrased that they secularized things. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elizabeth rose Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 yeah I use it secularly. On the tiomeline pages, I just crossed out the info about Jesus's life and ministry. It didn't bother me, but it really bothered my daughter. I haven't had any other issue with the programs I have used: animal worlds and AS!.

I would think it would be extremely easy to tweak for secular use. Elise in NC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
