For everything under the sun, moon, and stars about homeschooling, A to Z Home's Cool is a great website that is more like a huge encyclopedia.
Look for the classic Teenage Liberation Handbook at your library. It's a bit hippie-ish with some corny parts, like a metaphorical story about a toddler eating fruit. Just skip those things. In its defense, there are a lot of good ideas about the reasons and practicality of unschooling.
Homeschooling: the Teen Years
A page from Hoagie's Gifted on homeschooling gifted kids. Might relate if you're a gifted kid.
What's really good on Hoagie's Gifted is the list of free online courses and free online textbooks.
For all the haters who say drop outs can't go to college:
Cafi Cohen's Homeschoolers' College Admissions Handbook
Homeschooler's Guide to Portfolios and Transcripts
And What About College?: How Homeschooling Leads to Admissions to the Best Colleges & Universities
Don't be just another automaton that schools churn out by the hundreds. You're an individual and a human being with rights. Start living in reality. Don't walk in the safe and careful path they have drawn out for you. You're not a sheep and you're not a robot. If what goes on doesn't make sense to you, get out.
The funny ideas surrounding school actually make me laugh sometimes. Open your mind and you'll see that it's simply absurd.
