Question: Any Single Working Parents who Home School Middle School Aged Children? How do you do it?
I know they can be parent taught at night, but anyone know of any online schools/programs/tutors where their preteen/teen can be schooled while at home?
What curriculum do you most recommend for this age group?
Any single parent homeschool co-ops you know of (in the state of Georgia {Atlanta})?
Answer: Following is a link to an online group for single (and married) people who homeschool children of all ages:

I recommend Time4Learning as another responder did; it is affordable, has standardized curriculum, and is affordable. If you pay monthly, it is $20 a month, but if you pay quarterly or yearly, it costs even less.
Regarding single parent homeschool coops, I don't believe any exist; most single parent homeschoolers just don't have the time to start coops. Also, Homeschooling single parents rely on family, afterschool programs, married homeschoolers, church members, etc. to help them with their children during the day.
I am a single parent homeschooler, and I literally rearranged my life to be home with my son. Until he was about 6.5 yrs. old, I worked in an office, but now I work from home for West at Home, do contract transcription work, and am a full-time online medical transcription (excellent career choice for those who want to work at home) student.
I hope this is helpful.
