About Engrade.com:

Engrade, based in Los Angeles, California, was founded in 2003 by a great team of successful internet entrepreneurs who wanted to use their talents to help the world... Our service is truly free and will remain free for teachers. We are able to offer Engrade free of charge because we have been fortunate in past businesses, allowing us to volunteer our talents and to pay for expenses out of our own pockets. 

 I registered as a homeschooler with no problems.
