Is the homeschooling Saxon Math accredited?
I keep seeing placement test links on the Saxon website and also mentions of exams here on YA, so I’m not sure. I used to use a lot of it years back in third grade, and it wasn’t accredited, but they seem to have changed a lot of their design. Is it accredited?

As said previously, textbooks aren’t accredited, but Saxon is a reputable program among both homeschoolers and accredited public schools. Here are some reviews of Saxon if you need additional information:

Hope this helps!
Why do you mean by accredited?
It isn’t a school, it is a textbook. Schools are accredited, textbooks are not.
Saxon is a textbook, and a very good on in my opinion. If you want to know more about them, you’re probably better off contacting the company and asking for more information. But as the other poster pointed out, it’s a textbook, not a school, so it’s probably not accredited. I’ve never heard of a textbook being accredited.
Textbooks are not accredited. Accreditation is someething that schools get if they have proven to an agency that their school meets the agency’s basic requirements for a good school.
Saxon math is used in a variety of schools, including many accredited ones. I’ve known of private and public schools that used Saxon math, and a lot of homeschoolers love it, too.
