This is my first time using SOS. We purchased the 8th grade for my son. I had absolutely no problems with installation and the program is very user friendly. So far I've had no trouble using it. Though everything is on the computer, you do have the option of printing lessons, quizzes and tests, which makes the program very flexible. I would give this curriculum 5 stars overall.

This is my daughter's first year to homeschool although for various reasons we have homeschooled other children in the past. She thought...phh..this will be a breeze. Much to her dismay (and my delight) she made a 43 on the first math homework, which illustrated to her that she will have to study and work to achieve results. Additionally, the Bible is incredible! She is learning intricate details in prayer..one of my faves!!!! She is now working ahead, taking notes, and loves it and learning more than she ever has! Love, Love, Love switched on schoolhouse!!!!
