Family TREE Update
I am in the process of updating my online database. We have had several deaths in our immediate family and I need to post some obituary notices and other miscellaneous family information.

Welcome to the Little Red School House!  This website belongs to Carol Hepburn, a home schooling Mom and family history buff.  I am so glad that you found my site and have stopped by to look it over.  I have been home schooling since 2004 and have created a number of schedules, organizational methods and other handy helpful tools to try and keep our schooling running smoothly.  You are welcome to browse and download any of my files and use them for your home school.

Getting Started

There is a lot of information on these pages and it is easiest to use our handy Search Engine below for quick results.  Just type in the word, phrase or even your family surname and it will look through all the pages on this site and bring back a listing of possible matches.  If you are looking for something specific but cannot find it, drop me an email!

My Family Tree

If you have found my website because of another genealogy search engine, you can see my Online Family Tree database. I am not working on my tree anymore (just stuck!) and cannot really answer any personal research questions. Feel free, however, to browse through my 12,000+ member database and hopefully it might help you make some new connections.

Take a Peek Into Our Home School

Our home school will probably look very different from your home school.  We don't have a school room and we don't keep regular school hours.  We don't even use textbooks!  We read from many, many living books and take an integrated approach to our studies.  We incorporate student-directed learning as much as possible and make self-education a high priority.  Our goal is to make our school year very fun, low-key, and completely unique and unusual!

We use several wonderful FREE curriculums to build out our own unique program each year: Ambleside Online, Yesterday's Classics (mainlesson.com), MEP Math, and The Annenberg Project.  In addition to free curriculum, we also use A Beka, Bob Jones, and other traditional textbooks as needed.  Our overall approach to home schooling is eclectic, rather than singly focused on one teaching method.  We have found great success using a variety of tools and methods.
