The children are homeschooled, with at least some of their classes taking place at a local homeschool co-op.

Their son Ben followed strict rules throughout his courtship and engagement to Jessa, including limited physical contact and never being without a chaperone. Their daughter Jess does not follow these rules, and has publicly stated that she is against courtship.
