That was one of the lovely parts of being homeschooled. As long as I did everything to pass the Kentucky high school curriculum requirements (4 semesters of math, 4 of English, 3 of science, 3 of social studies and at least 2 of phys ed), I could then study whatever I wanted, which was so much fun.
We did units on mythology, weird science, Latin, dinosuars, library science (interesting as I went to work for a library six months later), and pretty much anything else we found interesting. We went to the library all the time, and got to read whatever we wanted. America's dismal education system is part of the reason so many families are using homeschooling now.
