I am so impressed with your teaching and parenting. I know, especially for new families, the beginning of the year can be really rough. There is so much to learn and there are so many new things to figure out. You are doing a great job.

I am hearing so many parent educators say "I think I am getting the hang of it." Things are starting to make sense, curriculum is finally arriving and you can see what your days and weeks will look like. I have collected an amazing first set of work samples and am having a great time hearing your children talk about what they are learning.

I just wanted to take a moment to say how much I respect what each and every one of you is doing, and to let you know that I admire your commitment to your child's (children's) learning. I am in awe of you.

Returnables

How do you know what curriculum items you will need to return to Visions?

Some items are consumable (most workbooks and paperback novels, etc.), that means they are designed to be used up. Others are returnable (most hardback textbooks and manuals, some materials), that means that you will need to return them to Visions at the end of the year.

To determine what portions of your orders are returnable, go to your Orders screen. At the top you will see a summary of your account. It will look something like this, with your student's name above it:


The blue link for "Returnables" will take you to another page that will list items that need to be returned to Visions at the end of the year. It will look something like this:
