DURHAM, N.C. /ScoopCloud/ -- Black families and educators looking for relatable educational materials to enhance their children's learning experience will soon have a new resource to amplify their efforts when Nu School Supplies launches in August.

Touted as "The online marketplace for curriculum and supplies," Nu School Supplies is a source for African centered educational material that enables educators and parents to buy, sell and share lesson plans, printable material, and other educational resources. The resources are geared toward children of color from Pre-K to 12th grade and designed to encourage the black community to reconstruct the education system they were raised in by creating their own curriculum.

More and more African American families are turning to homeschooling to educate their children. In fact a study conducted by the National Home Research Institute found that the number of black children being homeschooled doubled from 103,000 in 2003 to 220,000 in 2016. And with the Covid crisis, that number has now quadrupled. One of the reasons cited by black parents for opting to home schooling is that they want to provide their children with the history and social context that the public school system does not offer. Despite the increase in black homeschooling and focus on cultural pedagogy, finding relatable resources is often a challenge and Nu School Supplies is filling that gap.

Homeschool Educator, Oni Bey, is the mastermind behind this dynamic new platform. "As an educator, in the classroom and at home, I have noticed the lack of representational material for all types of students. I see firsthand the discouragement and obstacles it can cause in a young learner. I have chosen to fight the under-representation of children of color in the education system by providing parents and educators an online platform that promotes and sells relatable education materials."

Bey added that her goal is to have more families teaching their own children in a cultural centered environment.

For parents considering the idea of educating their children at home but have no idea where to start, Nu School Supplies has what you need for teaching development. We are here to give you the courage and resources to create a learning system best suitable for your learner.

Bey recently launched an eBook, called, "Your Guide to Creating Your Own Curriculum." In this resource, she provides a blueprint that parents, who are new to homeschooling, can use to design a curriculum based on their children's unique needs.

Sellers can increase their sales by supplying thousands of families with the afrocentric content they are looking for. Take advantage of our promotional and marketing tools to maximize traffic to your store, and access to our community of parents and educators for product feedback and testing. If interested in selling, fill out this form, or visit our website today.

Nü School Supplies is scheduled to launch officially on August 20, 2021. Whether by chance or by force, the power over our education is being placed back into our hands. The public's need for your resources is at an all time high. Having them in a centralized location makes building curriculum and finding specialized resources easier for the parent/educator, and expedites the goal of shaping well rounded students. With our students starting school soon, send them back to the classroom confident with our educational resources.

OJAI, Calif. /ScoopCloud/ -- Due to the recent explosion in homeschool learning, Lighthouse Homeschool Solutions, a division of Lighthouse Learning Solutions, LLC, is offering a free online curriculum for the summer of 2021.

While kids were forced to go online for school in 2020 and into 2021, many families found they actually preferred learning from home. As a result, they're looking into ways to keep it going. That's why Lighthouse Homeschool Solutions has decided to offer a way for families to test the waters first - for free.

This new online program can bring ease and enjoyment to what, for some, can seem a daunting enterprise. As parents face difficult questions surrounding educational choices for their families, homeschooling is quickly gaining momentum because it puts them in control. While the initial homeschool set-up may be a little challenging, the benefits and rewards that come with homeschooling are unsurpassed.

For example, some common reasons families choose to homeschool include:

* more one-on-one time with their children

* the ability for their child to work at their own pace

* dissatisfaction with overall education and inconsistent learning opportunities provided in traditional school settings

* more opportunity to instill family values, morals and a love of learning

* problematic social patterns in traditional school environments

* safety during the pandemic

EdWeek Research Center reports that, "Concerns over exposure to the coronavirus, excessive screen time and instability in school schedules have driven an unprecedented number of parents to home school their children this academic year - a shift that could have lasting effects on both public schools and the home-schooling movement."

This research also shows that nine percent of parents who were not homeschooling their children in 2020, plan to homeschool them at least some of the time in 2021.

Since many parents never dreamed they'd be teachers, Lighthouse Homeschool Solutions takes the pressure off of their need to create, find, and vet online resources. It's simply less stress for parents and more fun for everyone.

This free online learning program is flexible in meeting specific needs and interests; it gives parents confidence to guide their kids in learning at their own pace. The online units of study are easily adapted to different ages and learning styles, and they include essential knowledge and engaging activities. The curriculum works to develop critical thinking skills in an easy-to-use, consistent format. Overall, this program provides flexibility and structure for homeschooling families.

Lighthouse Homeschool Solutions is excited about this curriculum and hopes this free summer access will encourage interested families to try it out. Begining this fall, parents can choose a monthly or annual subscription for access to the complete library of units. Alternatively, they can choose specific units for individual purchase in multiple subjects, including science, world history, U.S. history, literature, art and cross-curricular studies.

"We love the Lighthouse homeschooling curriculum," says Lauren, the mom of a fourth-grade student. "It's easy to use and the content has been exceptional. I never thought I'd homeschool, let alone enjoy it. I'm truly enjoying working with my daughter on this program. And, as a busy working mom of three, I needed a program that we could do when it worked for us and a program that made learning fun, engaging, enjoyable and had a thoughtful curriculum."
