Resources for Homeschooling Through High School... and Beyond!


Hi! I'm Janice Campbell, and I'm glad you stopped by! Janice Campbell, Paris 2005

This site is focused on home- and family-centered living with a special emphasis on writing, high school literature, and homeschooling through high school and beyond, with topics including non-traditional college and home business.

My goal is to provide articles, links, and resources that will help you make time for things that matter to you. I want to help streamline life's necessities - like high school transcripts, records, and diplomas, and teaching writing- so you'll have more time to spend on the important things-- things that last.

Feel free to browse through the pages of the site, and to e-mail me if you have any questions about what you find. If you e-mail me with a question and don't receive an answer in about 48 hours, please check your 'junk' folder. I often find things have been sent there that shouldn't be!

Be sure to sign up for the free bi-weekly e-zine in the box at left —I like to share new resources, tips, and links that can help you grow. Your contact information is safe with me-- I promise I will never, ever share your e-mail, so you'll receive only what you've requested.

After you sign up, please check your inbox for a confirmation e-mail. This will help you to make sure you actually receive the e-zine and bonus article! If you don't see it in your inbox, check your 'junk' folder, as it may have mistakenly been routed there. If you add my e-mail to your address book, you won't have any difficulty with that.

I hope you enjoy browsing the website. You may also enjoy my blog at www.Janice-Campbell.com. It's where I post new articles, reviews, classic poetry, news, and inspiration. Thank you for visiting!

College-Prep High School Literature

Zeitgeist Literature: High School English for HomeschoolersLooking ahead, I'm excited to announce that the online English classes I've taught for the past few years will be available soon as self-guided courses! I've never been able to take all the students who wanted to take the classes, so I have been transforming them into courses that can be used independently. There is a lot of layout and link-checking to be done, but they'll be out as soon as possible.

Click HERE if you'd like to read more about Excellence in Literature: Self-Directed, College-Prepartory, Literature-Based English for Homeschoolers (working title). I'll let you know via the e-newsletter as soon as each level is available!


Grammar for Homeschoolers

Grammar Made Easy: Writing a Step Above by Connie SchenkelbergFor several years, I have been recommending Connie Schenkelberg's Writing a Step Above grammar program. I bought it years ago, and used it with my boys, and found it simple, intuitive, and streamlined. What's not to like about that?

People to whom I recommended it weren't so happy, though, because it was very hard to find. Finally, I tracked down Connie-- she was busy teaching and writing in northern Virginia, and she has agreed to let the Made Easy Books division of Everyday Education publish Writing a Step Above as Grammar Made Easy: Writing a Step Above! We have redesigned the cover, and it's now available as a print book, as well as an e-book. I think you'll love it! CLICK HERE to read more!
