Originally enacted in 1985 under then-Governor Bill Clinton, Arkansas’ home school law recognized the right of parents to teach their children at home, but imposed considerable restrictions, especially for special education. In 1997, due largely to the efforts of Governor Mike Huckabee, Arkansas revised the law creating a much more favorable environment for home educators. The 1997 law required parents to provide written notice to the local superintendent of their intent to provide a home school at the beginning of each school year or at the time during the school year that the parent withdrew the child from public school. Now, just two years later, home school freedom in Arkansas has taken a step backwards and parents find themselves burdened by some of the same restrictions as before.

Apparently we don’t want the facts. Come on, jump on the anti-Huckabee bandwagon. 95% of Freepers on on it. The water’s fine.

(That said, I’m all for Thompson.)
