When the seasons change, do you evaluate your homeschool curriculum and resources? Perhaps you like to include a few new educational products as Christmas gifts. The Old Schoolhouse® Magazine offers resource guides in each issue of the magazine where you can peruse various products that would be perfect for the season for giving.
The Fall 2024 issue of the magazine offers two resource guides for parents. One is focused on resources for high school students and those seeking higher education. The other resource guide shares products that would make great gifts.
Preparing for the Future
In Resource Guide: Preparing for the Future: High School and Beyond, learn more about:
- American School
- Oak Hills Christian College
- JAM with Latin
- Radius International

While you won’t be adding a college or school under the tree for your high schooler, it’s never too early to start researching different school opportunities. You can even make a family trip out of a college tour.
Visit the Minnesota northwoods and tour Oak Hills Christian College where they seek to inspire students to be grounded in the Word of God and grow in their relationship to Christ. Or visit Washington to tour Northwest University. Students who attend Northwest University don’t just receive a highly awarded educational experience that leads to great careers, they graduate with an even deeper sense of Christ’s presence in their lives.
