Private Schools
I toured a private, orthodox Catholic school recently. It was established by 1 man with the help of a few parents with a vision. The building is a disused parish school building, rented from the diocese for $1. There are no organized sports, no bureaucracy, no government requirements. There is a cost to the parents, but it is minimal.
Teachers are like-minded, Christian professors. All are highly educated and most are university professors, who are happy to teach their subjects 1-2 hours per day to focused, like-minded students, in a Christian environment - because they believe in the mission. Of course, the academics are excellent, with courses in advanced Calculus, Latin, etc...
In 3 years, the school has already grown to 80 students.
RE: Private Schools
But how much are the tuition?
In this case, its about $4000/year
The humorous thing is that five years ago they didn't believe that.
I’m old enough to remember when teachers would have been fired for indulging delusions of students........
Now it’s required.
Yet. We get a Democrat/Socialist/Communist in the White House, and that may change.
I’ll bet even non-catholics want to send their kids there. In fact, I bet even non-Christian parents will want to send their kids there. Such a school is a powerful outreach to the unreached world.
I’ve seen it with similar schools elsewhere. Churches are missing it if they don’t consider schooling their own kids (and the kids of their town). What good does it do to send missionaries around the world and lose your own kids?
“They are acting out of their worldview. They apparently believe that gender is fluid”
“The humorous thing is that five years ago they didn’t believe that. “
Kinda sounds like their BRAINS are fluid...
Keep in mind that these are the very same people who worship people like Bill Nye and constantly tell us that, unlike Christians, they believe in science.
Well, here’s some science for you, oh superior ones; there are only two genders, period.

This ping list is for the other articles of interest to homeschoolers about education and public school. This can occasionally be a fairly high volume list. Articles pinged to the Another Reason to Homeschool List will be given the keyword of ARTH. (If I remember. If I forget, please feel free to add it yourself)
The main Homeschool Ping List handles the homeschool-specific articles. I hold both the Homeschool Ping List and the Another Reason to Homeschool Ping list. Please freepmail me to let me know if you would like to be added to or removed from either list, or both.
The use of the verb "assigned" implies it's purely arbitrary, It isn't arbitrary. There are some cases of children born with mixed sex organs, but they are clearly abnormal. Their existence is not an excuse to obscure the fact that sex exists before it's discovered. It isn't assigned arbitrarily.
I've seen some of Bill Nye's stuff for kids.
It is useless.
For one thing, NOBODY can follow it.
It jumps around so fast that it's impossible to process anything.
And the guy is an imbecile. He acts like a total idiot.
school that requires speech in conflict with fundamental truth is not a school. It is a gulag of indoctrination.
We home educated four kids for a few hundred to maybe $2,000 a year total.
All are adults and live independently. One is an engineer now so it obviously worked out OK.
I’m about to pay $13k per year per child.
There’s a war for our children’s minds, I’m willing to pay that cost.
I have metaphorically died on more than one hill, going back to 1984.
The degradation of churchianity is not new, but it is getting worse.
I have personally aided numerous homoerotic persons, but I refuse to accept their lifestyle as legitimate for someone claiming to be a Christian.
Respectfully: two sexes, not two genders.
The left insidiously changes words to sow confusion and weaken opposition.
Gender is linguistic; sex is biological.
This is important: Some languages do indeed have many genders, but humanity has exactly and only two sexes.
