The Ultimate Membership: A SchoolhouseTeachers.com Review

DISCLOSURE: I RECEIVED THIS COMPLIMENTARY PRODUCT THROUGH THE HOMESCHOOL REVIEW CREW.

For the past 6 years, I have been reviewing all kinds of educational materials thanks to the Homeschool Review Crew. One of the many perks as a reviewer is my relationship with their parent company, The Old Schoolhouse® (aff link) and our sister division, SchoolhouseTeachers.com (aff link). Through these organizations, I receive all kinds of encouragement through The Old Schoolhouse Magazine and countless homeschooling resources and curriculum from SchoolhouseTeachers.com. Today, I get to talk about the Ultimate Membership from SchoolhouseTeachers.com, a division of The Old Schoolhouse® and all the different ways it can serve a homeschooling family.

What We Received:

We received the Ultimate Membership from SchoolhouseTeachers.com, a division of The Old Schoolhouse®. This is the most comprehensive membership they offer which covers all available classes Pre-K - 12th for the entire family, lesson plans, planners, parent courses, online electives, homeschool parent support, access to Rightnow Media, World Book and Applecore Silver Plan.

How It Works:

A membership to SchoolhouseTeachers.com gives you access to digital content. How you utilize and organize that content is entirely up to you. You can search their courses by grade or subject or simply browse. One of their latest offerings is grade level boxes. While not a physical box, it is selected courses and lesson plans for a particular grade. They have recently added the 9th-12th boxes, completing their K-12th commitment. Soon, they will be adding Pre-K and a Parent box as well! Whether you have one child or a household full of kids, you can provide them all with a unique, self-paced education for one price. Once a member you can access all courses, all the time. Since launching in 2012 with only 11 courses, SchoolhouseTeachers.com now provides full curriculum options for all, and has now grown into a community. There regular Zoom chats, online Members Lounge, and now online events like the Virtual Science Fair (coming March 25th), Art & Photography Fair, Story Time, Virtual Talent Show (Coming May 20th) and other seasonal events.

Who Should Use This Program?

Large families with a limited budget could benefit most from a membership like this. With over 400 courses, you really have a lot of options and opportunity to customize. One price for everyone makes a lot doable on little. A family in a remote location or a community that has limited extra-curriculars could really benefit from the online activities - for students and parents. We live in a thriving homeschool community, but that just isn’t possible for everyone. This community that SchoolhouseTeachers is building can fill in the gaps for isolated families. It also can be a great jack of all trades curriculum too. With different students who have different needs, many parents find themselves building a school year from scratch and then scratching the school year! When you need a supplement (or 5), this is a great resource to have all the time. Whenever something doesn’t work out, you can always find something else to try in its place from SchoolhouseTeachers.com.
