Let’s be honest: we have never needed to know the ins-and-outs of our government quite like we do today. With the Internet, AI and social media in full-swing, it pays to know your rights.

As we’ve entered the high school years, there’s one thing I’m sure of. We need a flexible and self-paced curriculum. Being able to work at our own speed makes a world of difference for my kids!
