It depends on what kind of schooling you decide on I don't know where you live but in Ohio and Pennsylvania there is a Charter School called OHDELA (Ohio's School) and PDELA(Penn.'s School) They are completely free and provide you with a computer, and all the books and school supplies you child will need. The program is very easy to follow, as 60% of it is Internet and 40% is book work. Ever since I have started the program, I am getiiting WAY better grades than I ever did at Public School. I highly recommend homeschooling. The only thing you pay for is Internet access.
