Jenelle Evans Shares Homeschool Life, New Medical Diagnosis

Jenelle Evans is back at the center of Teen Mom conversation after giving followers an update on her family’s latest school plans. The reality TV alum told Instagram users that Kaiser Griffith and Ensley Eason are continuing their education through a homeschooling program this year. Evans said the decision comes as she manages complex regional pain syndrome and claimed that harsh attention from critics has made the change necessary for her children.

The update follows the family’s move to Florida, where Evans said she is taking a different approach to Kaiser and Ensley’s schooling for multiple reasons. According to Evans, her children have faced bullying from both peers and adults because of her public profile, as well as their past exposure on reality television and social media. She suggested that those experiences helped push the family toward homeschooling for the current school year.

The divisive TV personality revealed that even adults tried to drag her children into drama revolving around her and her many soulmates. Finally, she claims the decision was made because she found it difficult to drive them to and from school after being diagnosed with complex regional pain syndrome.

She is using Acellus Academy to keep her kids on track with online schooling and insists it is going well. She even claimed that her kids knock out their lessons in as little as two hours per day.

From North Carolina to Las Vegas and Florida

The Evans family’s educational history has unfolded alongside other significant changes in their lives. For much of their childhood, Kaiser and Ensley attended traditional schools in North Carolina, with a brief stopover in Tennessee. In 2024, that all changed. Evans pulled her children from school amid her separation drama because she said she believed their school was not safe.

The family later left North Carolina and moved to Las Vegas. They were enrolled in an in-person school for the 2024–2025 school year, though reports that year raised questions about their attendance. Things wer quieter the following year. The elementary-aged children finished the 2025–2026 school year in Las Vegas before they picked up and moved again.

Jenelle, along with her two younger children and ex-husband, David Eason, packed up in May and moved to Florida, where the family is now stationed. Eason appears to be out of the picture once again, but there is no telling how long that will last. For now, Evans and her two younger children are staying put in Florida. They are focusing on at least one year of homeschooling.

What’s Going On With Jace Evans?

Jace Evans, now 17, is not part of Evans’ latest homeschooling effort. While the teen has bounced around from house to house and from mental health facility to mental health facility, he has officially landed back in his grandmother’s care.

He updated fans on his whereabouts earlier this month, noting that his grandmother was doing well and that he was focused on doing what he needed to do to prepare for life as an adult. He made it clear that he was back in North Carolina and would be staying there for a while. It is unclear exactly where he is attending school. The upload made it seem like he is enrolled and focused on making moves toward graduating.

Following Jace’s update, Jenelle took to social media to claim that the decision had been a collective one. She said the decision involved the teen, Barbara Evans, and Jenelle. Fans were skeptical that the decision was made by Jenelle in Jace’s best interest. Rather, they think Jenelle placed Jace with Barbara because she was back together with David Eason at the time.
