We’re considering homeschooling, can my daughter still play sports and take some classes at the high school?

mojo00 asked:


Hi there,
My oldest daughter is currently a freshman in high school. She’s doing very well being an honor student, however we feel that the curriculum at the high school is holding her back because all of the classes are heterogeneous, so she has kids in her English class that can barely read while she should be in honors (her high school is so small no honor classes are offered). She’s also struggling in algebra. Yes, she still has a B average, but it’s an uphill battle for her because of all the testing. She doesn’t take math tests well, no matter how hard she studies, event though she knows all of the material and how to do it, her tests scores have been terrible lately and keep bringing down her grade.
Sorry, what I took the long way of saying is that if we chose to home school my daughter (which she originally suggested) would she still be able to take a few elective courses at the high school (such as Drivers Ed and PE) and play sports there?
Thanks for any help.

Muriel
