We've used Acellus, Elephant Math, Khan Academy for extra support, Time4Learning. Now that my boys are HS age, we're liking Acellus because they earn transcripted HS credits, will graduate after 12th grade, and sets them up with the right documentation to go to college if they wish. It's more structured than we have done before, but even with that, they finish each day's materials in under 3 hours, usually under 2.
My latest newsletter, reflecting on my recent move to Austin

GN all! I get to sleep in my own bed tonight! All that's left is for my family to join me, on Thursday.
GM and happy Monday! Movers bring my household goods today!!!!
GM, with a fridge stocked for movers to bring my stuff tomorrow
GN nostriches, after a very successful day! Onward!

My goal is to replace using the LinkedIn Articles/Newsletter feature.
Hope your day is amazing!
Great suggestion! Thank you!
Today on #nostr I went to the Explore tab in Primal and saw the trending topics--followed everyone who had posted on trending topics of interest to me.
Then I searched for additional topics that I'm interested in and followed everyone in those topics, too.
Hoping that my Home feed will be more diverse than just #bitcoin and #nostr.
I'm interested in those, and happy #StackingSats, but way more interested in many more things and don't see much else right now in my feed. Nostr can't just be about nostr and bitcoin for it to stick!
GM nostriches! First accreditation visit (ever!) for the university I work for. Momentous!
Why do people feel the need to announce their departure from social media apps??!? I am sure we don’t care
GN after another busy day in my new home. Hung in there and got it all done. Big accreditation visit tomorrow; first big milestone in my newest job. Will be up and out of my empty (but now cleaner) house early tomorrow

Doesn’t make much difference when working for the man. I face this in three jobs right now. Holy grail is starting my own thing

For smaller npubs with limited followers/engagement (the humble pleb) the current experience can be a bit isolating. If you're on Primal it feels like nobody is out there.
Then you open up eg #Amethyst and you see all of these emoji reactions and it feels like you're not posting to the void.
Not supporting is bad for new user retention imo.
It’s like you read my mind!

I've been enjoying Highlighter a lot--using it to switch over from publishing articles on LinkedIn. Still building an audience in nostrland https://highlighter.com/a/naddr1qvzqqqr4gupzqt692zc2smt6lwx7tmvqwat78y68qekc8zw62xaenq8ysz2lyqykqy2hwumn8ghj7un9d3shjtnyv9kh2uewd9hj7qqu235x2t2pwf6z6mmx94xx2ctyv4e8x6rfwqknqwfsvaukwdwmkky
Had this coming: 
GM. Feeling pensive today, as I prepare for university accreditation activities tomorrow at work and host move-in housecleaners at my new place. I'm temporarily living alone (while my family closes up the prior house) for the first time since 1999 and it's so weird to be the only adult who can take care of things. This week alone has been the biggest reinforcement of why a good marriage is vital to human flourishing
