It is easy to talk about home schooling, but not everyone is qualified to home teach. I for example could have never been able to. I could not even help my kids with their homework, because I was educated with a different school system and the American school system was confusing to me.

Also not everyone can afford to send their kids to private school

Exactly why we’ve got to get people engaged in their local schools. Personally I’d like to see the feds removed from education altogether.

I don’t even have kids and never miss a vote and manage to attend at least half the school board meetings. Very few parents do that much but those who do have expressed appreciation that I care enough about their kids and the future of the country.

Come to think of it. Those who do home school or send their kids to private school are the people who should be most engaged in public schools.

If they’ve found something that works, they should be pushing it in the public schools.
