@belbee12 Hi belbee, don't know how your situation has changed since posting this but, I thought I could offer you some resources and advice to help you decide what's best for you to do. You can do these things whether or not you stay in HS. If school is not meeting your needs, it's wasting your time. Your life is happening now; it's up to you to decide how to live it.

Get a variety of real life experience via a part time job, internship or volunteering
Utilize free resources: library and Khan Academy website
Follow your passion: anything that interests you is worth pursuing. any successful person will tell you it is impossible to succeed in something that doesn't genuinely interest you.

Anytime a writer starts out with "one of my favorite contributing philosophers" you can go ahead and assume nothing about anything she teaches is objective in the slightest bit.

Why so skeptical? You're begging the question. You have your own 'favorites'. To great extent, everyone speaks subjectively. Her view is only as objective as a view can be, having given a great deal of thought toward life and raising children AND having experienced great familial happiness and health. Her choice of words reveals nothing other than that she agrees with the person in question, not that she simply took up someone else's philosophy without thought and reason.

I think I have this book. I didn't think it was so leftist. I have "Summer Hill" and the official critiques, as well. I would highly recommend "To Train Up A Child" by the Pearl family.
