What does Statheros mean?
Statheros (σταθερός), is Greek for constant, stable, fixed, firm, stationary, standard, consistent, steadfast, and permanent.
Successful homeschooling parents embody Statheros.
Homeschooling comes with uncertainties, but having a solid source of support brings peace of mind.
Statheros Homeschooling is your constant, a firm foundation you can always rely on. When questions arise, or doubt creeps in, you have a place to turn—consistent, steady, and unwavering, just like the path you’re building for your child.
Is enrollment once or annual?
Annual. Enrollment opens for each school year on March 1. We do not close enrollment.
Is testing required?
No.
You can test if you want, but you don't have to. You also have the choice to do a Parent or Professional Evaluation.
What does Statheros require for Attendance?
It is critical that you meet the minimum requirement of 172 days per year, averaging 4 hours per day and that you track your attendance at home.
We do not require that you turn in your attendance to us, but you are required to keep up-to-date records at all times.
You are free to turn in your attendance to us each year for record storage if you choose.
The only time we will require you to turn in your attendance is if we are audited, in which case we will notify you, and you will have three business days to turn it into us. Failure to respond will result in removal from our school.
Are free question and answer calls included in my enrollment?
It depends on which enrollment package you enroll with. Due to the sheer number of families that we support, the complexities of answers that are required to properly support you, we could easily spend every day, all day talking with homeschooling families.
Our Reliable package is low-cost and does not include any time with a Coach, but our Enduring and Determined packages both include time with a Homeschool Coach.
Everyone is free to send questions through email.
We offer a lot of free help through our Podcast, blog, private Facebook group, and information pages on our website.
You can schedule time with a Homeschool Coach through our services page. These meetings are held on Zoom and last 50 minutes per session. Discounts are given if you purchase three or more hours with a coach. These hours can be spaced out and do not all need to be used at once.
Do you require vaccine records?
No.
Your medical decisions are your business, not ours. We know that you are the expert on your family's healthcare. Just ensure you keep your private records on file in your own home. If you participate in a publicly-funded enrichment program, you will need to turn in your student's records or non-medical exemption form to the school district.
What information do you collect for Enrollment?
Family Information:
Parent(s) name(s), contact information, and home address
Student Information:
Student(s) name(s), date(s) of birth, grade level, and previous school (if applicable)
Teaching Resource List:
The name(s) of curriculum if you use it, the learning opportunities that you provide for your student(s), or your method of homeschooling.
What if I homeschool year-round?
No problem! We completely get why families choose to do this and encourage you to run your homeschool in the way that works best for you.
For record-keeping purposes and consistency, our school year starts on July 1 and goes through June 30 of each year.
Just make sure that in this 365 window, you are completing your 172 days, averaging 4 hours per day.
Do I need to do semester reporting?
No.
All you have to do is an evaluation or test every other year.
