Do you have current plans to develop and eventually offer high school levels of Moving Beyond the Page? Are there any plans in the works? We'd love to continue on with this awesome curriculum beyond the 12-14 level. MBtP is a perfect fit for our family. Thanks!

Jennifer,

I'm glad to hear that you find MBTP such a good fit for your family! We do have plans to develop curriculum at the high school level, however, we do not have a specific time line for the completion of those levels.

Please let me know if you have any further questions.

Thank you,
Vicki

We've got one more year left and are scratching our heads about where to go from here. We've truly enjoyed our journey with MBtP.

As it looks right now, we are on track to release our first social studies and language arts courses in 2017. I am not sure about science at this point, but we should know more by later this summer.

High school 1 semester 1 is viewable on ideashare. Doesn't give info but does list the topics that will be discussed.

The ideashare only has social studies so far. I was hoping to get an idea for literature as well. We will be finishing up 12-14 this year and I'm starting to look at options for next year.

Hello all,

We do anticipate releasing our first level of high school language arts for the fall of 2017, but as of right now it looks like we will not have the first social studies level ready in time for the fall. We now have the first English unit on Idea Share. I hope that helps! :)

This is so exciting, that you are working on High school levels. We have had such a great experience with your curriculum, and our oldest is heading into 9th grade in 2017. Anxious for any and all material you could provide!

Hi, I am a NYS certified teacher in Biology and Chrmistry. I now live in Maryland and would like to homeschool students in this subject area. I taught in public and private schools for seven years and currently do private tutoring. Do I need to go through special credentialing to home school students in the sciences ? Do the parents just get credentialed and they outsource to me like a private tutor? TIA, new to this.

Hi,
Do you think that by fall 2018 you'll have a full high school curriculum ready? We are on the age 12-14 at the moment and love this curriculum very much.
Thanks for your time,
Mary

Robyn, I currently live in Maryland and Homeschool. Maryland does not allow homeschooling through private tutors. However Virginia and Pennsylvania do if you are close to one of those borders. :)

edit to add: You will need to be certified to teach in whichever state you plan to be teaching in!

We have used MBTP for nearly a decade. Now we're at the HS Level and MBTP has only the LA available. Does anyone have any recommendations for Science and Social Studies to hold us over until MBTP HS level Science and Social Studies is available?
Thank You!

Hi Desria,

Unfortunately, our High School offerings are developing a little slower than we had first anticipated. We will continue to offer our first level of High School English, but our Social Studies is now planned to be released Fall 2019. We will continue from there, but I don’t have a timeline at this point.

Please let me know if I can answer any further questions.

Thank you,
Vicki

Hello,

The first level of social studies will be World History. After this level is finished, we are planing levels that cover United States History and then a level on Civics and Geography.

High school levels ? What is happening with these? We are having to use our charter school 9th grade curriculum and worried this isn't going to work as well this coming year. If it doesn't I'll be dropping everything and using Mbtp.

Hi Carolyn,

Our high school curriculum is coming out slower than we would like. We currently have one level of language arts (that can be used for either 9th or 10th grade), and we are working on our first level of social studies. We are targeting next summer for its release, but we will keep you updated on our progress as we get closer to spring time.

Hello,

Our first high school curriculum for social studies will be World History. Our plan will be to follow that up with a course on American History, but we don't have a release date estimate for that yet.

We are thrilled with the current high school language arts program. When will the next level of language arts be released? I'm ever so hopeful to continue with MBTP through all 4 years of HS, as there is nothing out there that quite compares...

Hi Roxanne,

Thank you for your kind words about our high school language arts program. We are really proud of it. Unfortunately, you are not going to be happy with my response and schedule. We are just in the early stages of outlining the next level of language arts, and our current plan is to release the next level in 2020. I know that is not what you wanted to hear, and that it won't help you out at all if you are currently using the high school level. As you can imagine, it is a herculean effort to release an entire level of high school curriculum, but we are working as diligently as we can to get another one out there.

Keith

PS. I am going to forward your message to our writers. They love the curriculum they wrote, and it is always nice to hear that someone else does too.

We do not currently have a High School Social Studies curriculum. I know there were plans to resume writing High School Language Arts and start writing High School Social Studies for the the coming year, but with the pandemic, I know things have slowed down. That means I don't have a date on that for you at this time.

We hope to release more language arts levels starting in the Fall of 2022. There are also plans to start adding social studies. We cannot make any firm commitments on more high school at this time. (I have two daughters completing 7th grade at this moment and would love for there to be more as well.)
