"The content and the curriculum, that piece is very engaging. You could use it as the core curriculum. You could use it to supplement. It's very kid-friendly and it's very homeschool-friendly too. And so I would say, for someone who might not have a lot of background or knowledge in homeschooling, and this might be the first time, this would be a wonderful tool, because it lays it all out for you." - Executive Homeschool Director, CA
"Studies Weekly has been an engaging tool for our students. It's really cool as a reading tool as well, and you could technically use it across grades. So, even though second grade resources might be at a different level, I could use it with my fourth grader at a different year and just build off of what I want to." - Executive Homeschool Director, CA
