Our guest speaker today is a retired homeschooler with 17+ years of experience in home educating their four children and 10 years of experience as a homeschool consultant, blogger, writer, and speaker. Kris shared with us valuable tips for parents and teens on planning the high school years from setting goals, nurturing character development, financial planning, time management, to finding a career that fits each individual's unique skills and interests.
Two of Kris's newest resources for teens include:
(1) Navigating High School Student Guidebook
(2) Navigating High School Priority Planner
Key Takeaways from the Podcast:
1. Goal Setting and Prayer: Take time to sit down with your teen and discuss their goals for the future, including character development, spiritual growth, and academic objectives. It's crucial to pray with and for them as they navigate these transitional years.
2. Life Skills Development: High schoolers can benefit from learning essential life skills such as financial planning, time management, and self-discovery. Helping them identify their unique talents and interests is vital in guiding them toward a suitable career path. (Kris mentioned a great career assessment tool you might want to order.)
3. Priority Planner: Utilize a priority planner to help teens live by their priorities instead of getting caught up in the busyness of life. Whether they are homeschooled, in private school, or public school, this tool can set them up for success post-graduation.
