Through middle-school my sister and I were homeschooled, and my mom overcame this by getting involved with our church and a couple local education co-op groups. Two days out of the week my sister and I would go to a local church and meet with about a dozen or so other families that homeschooled and have classes. All the families used the same curriculum, and there were a few parents that volunteered to teach classes. It really helped with the socialization aspect, and also took some stress off of my mom since if I had any questions she couldn't answer, I'd be going to a "classroom" with someone who might be better able to answer them. I'd say it's worth looking into, search for homeschooling resources for your location. Or looking into Montessori schools in your area might be a good compromise.
