About Us
Welcome to The SLAH (Secret Life of the American Homeschooler)!
'The SLAH' is a blog publication that offers a window into the real world of homeschooling. It was created by a community of high school students (in late winter of 2015) who wanted to share their homeschooling experiences as well as their passions and talents. We pray that all of our work points to God, for He is the one who gave us our gifts and wrote each of our life stories. We want you to sit back, relax, scroll through and be encouraged and refreshed! The SLAH is a collaboration of columns, which span a wide range of topics. Please take a gander and don't hesitate to comment and/or contact us! Thank you for visiting our blog! Be sure to check out and 'like' our Facebook page for the newest articles, updates, and encouraging words! Below are descriptions of our currently featured columns: |

Oh, and if you absolutely love dogs, then yay! Because trust me, I say 'pets', but I really mean 'dogs'! :) |

Nurture Nature
Caroline S.
This column has been created to
explore and learn more about the
outdoors as well as animals and plants.
Through articles about outdoor recreation,
places to visit, plant identification,
forest history, etc.... hopefully we can
better understand what God has given
us and learn about more places where
we can enjoy His gift of nature.
