Is there a list of fully accredited home school?

Question

Where can I find a list of fully accredited home schools.I live in Nashville,Tn.

Answer 1

I don't know that such a list is available, but many of the complete curriculum providers on this list are accredited:

Understand, though, that accreditation does not mean much in terms of the quality of education your child receives.  There isn't a standard agency that accredits programs, certifying them as good or bad.  Different programs are certified by different agencies and there is no one regulating the accrediting agencies.

There are some great programs on the market that are not accredited.  You may find a non-accredited program that better meets your family's needs, and if so, you would be better off choosing that program over an accredited one.  Here is some information about accredited homeschooling:

Answer 2

Contact American School 2200 east 170th st,Lansing Ill.60438.

They will send their accreditation information along with information about their school.

I use this school it is good and isn't steeped in religious trappings.  Which is good for most people who want their church only on sunday.  There is another school that was ok but I was unhappy because the science curriculum spent a lot of time preaching.  It is called the Christian liberty academy and may be a good fit for other families.  I believe they have a web site.

Answer 4

I am not sure I understand your question.  Accredited by whom?  That I know of, there are no authorities that accredit a home school.

Check out http://www.hslda.org for the laws regarding homeschooling in Tennessee.

That said, a homeschool diploma is worth just as much as an "accredited" diploma-either way, they are mere decoration and much more important are the ACT/SAT scores and transcripts.
