Any full timers who home school?

Hello! Within the next several months my husband, kids, and I will be full timers! Our children are ages 5 and 8. My daughter will be going into the 3rd grade and my son will be going into kindergarten. I am a little lost at what all needs to be done. We will not be driving around the U.S. all the time. My husband is a Travel RN so we'll be moving around every 13 weeks or so. Since we're legal residents of GA we're using the GA K12 online school program. My question is this: What do we do about our address? I know I have to send in a Declaration of Intent to the GA Dept of Education and they forward it to the correct county but if we do not have a physical address anymore, what do we do? I'm also lost about what to do with our drivers license and mail! Do we use a family member's address? Any help would be GREATLY appreciated!:)

    Thanks! My parents, mainly my mother, think that we're crazy for doing it! But I think we're doing the right thing! We always talk about wanting to go places and we can't because of my husband's work schedule or because of school. So now we'll be with him and the kids will get more quality time with both of us. Our kids are actually pretty excited about it!

    Do you think that since we'll be staying in one place for 13 weeks at a time that the USPS will let us forward mail to each location?

    Mail forward service if allowed or a family address should work fine.

    Good luck, personally I think you're doing a wonderful thing for your kids just be sure to socialize them a bit. We have one on the way, have been FT for 5 years and likely will be doing the same thing.
