We had so much fun putting these episodes together for all of you! We hope that they were helpful and that you enjoyed them as much as we did.

This week we sit down with a dear friend, Elaine! Elaine is a mother of 3 wonderful children all of which attend public school. She has a Junior in High school, a Junior High goer, and a middle schooler. In this episode Elaine explains why her and her husband chose public schools for their children. She goes into the benefits that she has seen for her kids and also speaks to some of the hesitations and fears that go along with public school. We hope that you have enjoyed this series and that it has helped shine some light on different schooling options.

Welcome back for part 3 of 4 for the school choice series. This week Katie's friend Molly comes on the podcast to talk about her families journey with choosing the right private school for their kids. As Molly says in the interview, they are more worried about their kids getting into "heaven not Harvard" when it comes to their kids education.

This week we sit down with Brittany to talk about homeschooling. Brittany is a mother of 6 and homeschools all of them! In this episode she breaks down why her and her husband chose this option as well as how she teaches multiple kids in multiple grades while making sure each of her children gets exactly what they need.
