As Catholic homeschoolers, we take every opportunity that presents itself to introduce the saints to our children. But, if you really want to get to know a saint, try spending an entire year with him. We call our homeschool All Saints Academy, and we choose a different patron saint each year. We start the school year by placing a picture of our saint in a prominent place in the schoolroom. Each family member gets the saint’s holy card and medal. We use books, videos, coloring books, and crafts to get to know our new saint, and make a note of their important feast days, prayers, and novenas. We turn everything over to our chosen patron and petition him daily to watch over us and guide us through another homeschool year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
