Finish Strong, Start Smart: Homeschooling with Purpose
Feeling overwhelmed? You’re not alone. As the school year winds down, the to-do list grows—final projects, year-end events, and decisions about next year. Do we really have to figure it all out now? If you’ve already mapped out next year’s plans, congratulations! But if not, take heart—you’re in good company.
Each year, I pause to pray and reflect on our homeschool journey. Should we continue with our co-op? Add new classes—online or in person? Or maybe simplify? The real question remains: What is best for our family?
But before we look ahead, let’s commit to finishing this year strong. It’s tempting to ease up as the finish line comes into view, but this is when it matters most. How we push through challenges teaches our children perseverance, resilience, and dedication—lessons that extend far beyond academics.
"Start strong, stay strong, and finish strong by remembering why you started in the first place." – Ralph Marston
Remember Why You Started
Why did you choose to homeschool? For me, it was about time—more time with my children and the opportunity to shape their character and faith. But when we’re constantly running from one activity to another, that purpose can get lost.
So how do we finish strong and set ourselves up for a S.M.A.R.T start next year?
-
Seek Peace and Direction – Before making decisions, pause and pray.
-
Make Time for Yourself – A refreshed parent leads with clarity and grace.
-
Assess What’s Working and What’s Not – What brought joy this year? What felt draining?
-
Respond, Adjust and Simplify – Align your plans with your family’s values and needs.
-
Trust – The right path and the right people will be revealed. Pray again. Your homeschool journey is a calling.
Your to-do list is a mile long. Between academics, activities, and trying to meet everyone’s needs, it’s easy to lose sight of why you started homeschooling in the first place.
It’s time to pause, reset, and be reminded of the joy in this journey.
