- HeartofSeton (Catholic Homeschool support for Seton Home Study Curriculum) - Welcome to Heart of Seton! Heart of Seton is a support group for families using Seton Home Study Curriculum. Membership is restricted - it has become necessary to screen new members. It is our goal to provide a safe atmosphere for the Catholic Homeschool Families subscribed here at Heart of Seton. So if you are using Seton, have used Seton or are thinking about using Seton, whether it is full/partial enrollment or just using some of their materials, please sign up and help us out. We can share our ideas, problems, joys, activities, prayers, and much more. If you need more information about Seton, please go to Seton Home Study School.
"Seton provides detailed lesson plans on a day-to-day basis in every subject for each child; the plans are a great guide and a MUST for parents just starting out, because they help you to organize, know what to do each day, and assess the progress each child is making. Seton's lesson plans are very flexible - you decide how slowly or quickly your child will progress through each subject depending upon his or her ability. Seton provides grading and transcripts for each child. Seton will provide, upon request, standardized tests for each child at the end of each school year. As to whether Seton's program measures up to "national" academic standards, I would say, definitely, "yes".. I really encourage you to give Seton a try, you will be glad you did."
Please note, however, that this list is not an affiliation of Seton Home Study School, nor is it endorsed or monitored by Seton.
Newcomers may be moderated for a time after approval. The length of time is at the discretion of owner/moderator.
May God bless your family through the homeschool experience! Jesus, Mary, Joseph, we love You. Save souls! St. Elizabeth Ann Seton, pray for us! St. Michael the Archangel, pray for us!

- raysarithmetic (Ray's Arithmetic Users Group) - This group is for people who use, or are interested in using, Ray's Arithmetic for their homeschool math curriculum.
Ray's Arithmetic students learn arithmetic, increase their reading comprehension skills, and learn to think rather than plod through page after page of addition or subtraction problems with a one line direction at the top of each page. A student raised on Ray's will not even know he should be fearful of "story problems" because from day one every problem is posed in a sentence format.
To purchase Ray's Arithmetic for k-8th (Hard Copies) Please visit Homeschooling Books. (they also carry the Classic Curriculum Workbooks that correlate to the Ray's series). Click here to purchase all of the Ray's books K-12+ on CD. You will need to purchase the Parent Teacher Guide from one of the above links if you purchase the CD set.
