Why Secular Homeschooling?

As we are not religious, finding a secular homeschooling curriculum was absolutely vital. But other reasons people are looking for a secular curriculum are for the following:

• Not religious
• The kids may return to public school or plan to go to University (not that you can’t if you follow a religious curriculum)
• Focus on academics, a number of the Christian curriculums are outdated, and all focus on the Biblical perspective
• Believe in the Big Bang, and not that the World was created by God
• Are religious but are not Christian, so don’t want to have conflicting views in their homeschool curriculum

I hope you have found this useful, please let me know in the comments if you use any other secular homeschooling curriculum so I can add it.
