On our third year now. Started after the covaids BS and never sent them back. We put together our own curriculum from several sources, joined a co-op for a while and do a lot of unschooling. Teaching life skills that will stick with them forever. Raising animals, butchering, gardening, economics, financial responsibility, mechanics, etc etc. Our state doesn’t require specific curriculum and doesn’t audit. However, we do keep everything documented and filed.

I’ve repeatedly tried for a co-op to get a little time to do other things but people around here aren’t into it. There’s a great homeschooling group (and we are all great friends now) but only parent led activities happening.
I’m looking more into the Charlotte Mason way of doing things but 2020-2022 we were unschooling.
CM is good curriculum.
