    Is this something you've discussed with your parents, because home schooling means that your parents become your teacher. There are lesson plans, there are tests, everything that's expected of you in a regular school is expected of you when you're home schooled.

    The ups are that you don't experience as much peer pressure, bullying, etc. etc. The downs, depending on your dedication, and the dedication of your parents, you can finish school without the necessary education you need in order to move forward. Also, less interaction with your peers can have a negative effect.

    Bottom line, if this isn't something your parents agree to, it's no go.

    Does one of your parents have time daily to work with you on your lessons. They may buy and use a set program though many sourses or they may set up their own.

    Also there are different rules in each state as to requirements
