In episode one of my School Choice Series, Kris Habashy shares her family’s journey from homeschooling to Christian private education. From navigating dyslexia to the challenges of transitioning middle schoolers, Kris offers a heartfelt, honest look at the joys, struggles, and unexpected growth that come with trusting God in your educational choices.

My hope with this series is to share a variety of school choice stories so you can hear different experiences and perspectives. As you listen, I encourage you to pray and seek God’s guidance, asking Him to bring to mind exactly what you need to know for your family’s journey. Trust Him to walk hand in hand with you, year by year, as you make decisions and navigate each step of your children’s education. Here is some of what we cover:

Why Kris initially chose to homeschool and how her personality and family dynamics played a role.
The challenges of transitioning kids from homeschooling to private school — especially in middle school.
The importance of nurturing your own growth as a mom while guiding your kids.
Families navigating dyslexia, learning differences, or anxiety around school transitions.
