Considering Homeschooling?

Homeschooling is an educational option where parents take the lead role in directing their child’s education. Instruction can happen at home or in combination with other resources—like tutorial programs such as HHLearning.

Depending on where you live, each state has its own legislation regarding homeschooling. We recommend visiting the HSLDA website.

Our university-style hybrid model blends professional tutor instruction and at-home learning. Students attend in-person classes 1–2 days per week and complete assignments at home, guided by their parents. This partnership allows parents to retain control of their child’s education while benefiting from expert instruction in core and elective subjects.

As a homeschool family you are free to choose the curriculum that best fits the needs of your student. Many families choose to utilize courses such as those found at HHLearning.  We make all of the curriculum decisions for you, making it easier for the parent to homeschool their child.

Umbrella schools are church-related or private organizations that oversee and support homeschooling families. They help parents meet legal requirements and often provide:

• Transcript and recordkeeping

• College and scholarship guidance

No. HHLearning is not an umbrella school. We are a university-model tutorial program. The grades that you receive from our program will be reported, by you, to your umbrella school or local school district that oversees your home education.

No. You do not have to register with an umbrella school if you register with your local school district. However, we recommend that you utilize an umbrella school once your child is in high school AND if they plan to attend college. It will make the transition to college and universities much easier with an official transcript coming from an umbrella school.

Absolutely!  We work closely with these umbrella schools and they accept any course taken at HHLearning.  Check with your umbrella school to assure that your student is on track to receive the credits needed to graduate. 

Any parent or guardian with at least a high school diploma or GED can homeschool their child.

1. Every family must Submit a Declaration of Intent to the Georgia Department of Education annually (due by September 1 or within 30 days of starting).  This includes families who choose to use an Umbrella School to oversee their education.

2. Teach 180 days per year with at least 4.5 hours of instruction per day.

3. Cover required subjects: reading, language arts, math, social studies, and science.

4. Maintain attendance records and submit an annual progress report.

5. Standardized testing must be done at home every three years starting in 3rd grade (results kept on file, not submitted).

Tennessee provides three legal pathways:

1. Independent Home School (via local school district)

2. Church-Related (Umbrella) School

3. Accredited Online School

Most families choose the Umbrella School option for its flexibility and reduced reporting requirements.

For Independent Homeschooling:

• Parent must have a high school diploma or GED.

• Must file a notice of intent with the local school district annually.

• Teach 180 days/year with 4 hours of instruction per day.

• Submit attendance and immunization records.

For Umbrella Schools:

• The umbrella school handles much of the reporting.

• Parents typically submit grades and attendance directly to the umbrella school, not the state.
  

Absolutely! We work with many first-time homeschoolers and provide both academic classes and mentorship for parents. Whether you’re just getting started or transitioning from public/private school, we’re here to support you.

We offer tutorial classes for grades K–12 in core subjects (English, Math, Science, History, Foreign Languages) and electives (Art, Choir, Theater, and more). See our Course Catalog for details.  Our courses are chosen individually, or you can combine multiple classes to create full days of classes for your student to attend.

Possibly.  It depends on the courses you are interested in and your child’s specific situation.  Please contact us directly.

Yes!  We open registration for the second semester in November.  You are welcome to apply as long as we have openings in the course(s) you are interested in.  Some of our courses require a pre-test to make sure your student is prepared academically.  If your application is accepted, we will communicate with you about any pre-tests that may be required.

While HHLearning does provide a letter grade on a report card at the end of each semester, we do NOT provide a grading scale.  The grading scale is decided by the umbrella school and/or the family.  The grades we send to the families will be reported to the umbrella school or school district you are registered with. 

HHLearning offers several opportunities throughout the year for community building. Take advantage of the events that are scheduled. We also have two Facebook groups and an Instagram account to keep you informed.
