Homeschool Day | Day in the Life Vlog | Thursday, May 22, 2025
My name is Hana and this is Pepper and Pine. Welcome to our Thursday , May 22, 2025 Homeschool Day. I’m homeschooling my 14-year old daughter. On Thursdays, my daughter has in person classes from about 10 AM to 4 PM. However, as today is the last class the schedule is amended and she doesn’t start until 12:30 PM. However, as it’s the last class, there will be a presentation in the evening so we will be heading there at around 5 PM. Our school day ended at around 12 noon today.
