I'm currently very unsatisfied with my school and am considering dropping out at the quarter and starting homeschooling. Could you possibly give me some info/resources that a first-time homeschooler might need?

It took you this long to decide you didn't like school? Quit now and you will only be a quitter. You know enough to ace the SAT? To pass the GED? You want to be home schooled for one year? Who will home school you? I think you are confused. Tough it out.

You can't move up to a classroom that's built around the Bible.
I'm being indoctrinated, but the kids who're taken out of schools to be taught the Bible aren't?
Since you will only have less than a year to complete high school, it shouldn't be to hard to finish the "required" courses to get a diploma. Like mentioned earlier, Ebenz and Dred Helm would both be great candidates to direct you towards that path. My children are still young, so I don't know exactly how high-school homeschooling works but there are plenty of people I do know who I can get answers from if needed. Also, it may depend on the state you live in for the specific requirements you will need.
One of the great things is you will finally be able to study subjects that really interest you which will maximize your learning and chances for success as you pursue a career. The internet is an endless fountain of information where you can study any subject imaginable for free.
Put a list of questions you have together and we can all do our best to answer them for you and help you on your journey! :thumb:

I think P8nterDan should move out of high school ASAP.
Every teenage year is valuable and he has a greater chance of being influenced negatively while a teenager in the public school system.
Plus, the liberals in this thread blow my mind. They urge Dan to finish out the senior year, as if homeschool would only last that long. What the libs don't realize is that homeschooling is a lifelong adventure in excellence! He's just beginning!

Yep. There's one like that in every class.

What grade are you in?
If you're close to graduating (17), why not just grit your teeth, take the SAT, graduate, and move on?
I've never liked school much, but I sat down and looked through my priorities, how to make the best use of my time, etc, and figured out that public school is a waste of my time. I took the SAT as a freshman and beat 82% of college bound graduating seniors for the state of Illinois. From what I hear, the GED isn't much either. I would be homeschooled for two years unless I could graduate early, which is quite possible. Seeing as I'm slowed down to the pace of the dumbest person in my class, I could go alot faster. Also, I have almost all of the state's requirements for graduation already, but my school doesn't allow early graduation and they have weird required classes that are just school specific. I also want to have more time, and after talking to several people I know who are homeschooled, they all say that they finish their work several hours faster each day than a regular school day takes. That means more time to get in the word, possibly afew extra work hours, and maybe even a chance to take up guitar.
