Kelly Edwards
When my oldest daughter was in first grade, we withdrew our eldest daughter from conventional school due to its inability to meet her unique needs. Our family, shaped by adoption and neurodivergence, embarked on a homeschooling journey. Initially, our ‘schooled’ mindset posed challenges, but embracing deschooling marked a transformative turning point. Now, I support fellow parents in their path to natural learning with the 90-Minute School Day system, offering a concise framework for a tailored and enriching education.
