Home Schooling Soars


Read More...

I don't think enough parents are interested enough or have the time to make this a pivot point for our culture, but it is something.

  1. I used to be dead-set against homeschooling but, for the last 10 years or so, I'm 100% for it, and I know a few families who homeschool. It's mostly not at home anymore...parents with expertise in math do classes, artist parents do classes, you might call it homeschool communes now. And kids mostly do wonderfully in their SATs and university enrollment.

    1. Z, the few people I know of or have met do an incredible job home schooling.

      The perfessers must hate those kids :)

    2. Like the perfesser says "What you never learned there are 97 different genders?" Student, "No sir, I learned about science and biology".

  3. Public schools are generally a disaster these days. Communist Indictrinatiin Centers is about all they are now.

    Still if illiterate, semi-literate or otherwise hopelessly uneducated parents –– and believe me there are a LOT of them out there –– undertake to educate their children, I can't see how much good could come of it.

    What we REALLY need is to do way with the stikn' Federal Department of Educatin, and return control of our schools to LOCAL communities.

    Yes you'd get a wide variety of results some better than others, but at least people would be FREE to do what THEY think best for their children.

    Isn't Maximum Freedom of Choice for the Individual the basis of our country's founding?

    1. I've been saying local school control for a good while now Franco. Maybe if they make me king.

    2. We would do better if you WERE King, Kid, but I'm afraid the job would spoil your disposition.

      Happy Christmas!

      <];^}> Ho ho Ho!

    3. Franco, I would be a good ruler with the proper advisors in various categories.

      But I do not aspire to the position. i think it is better of the masses figure it out for themselves.

  4. A SPECIAL NEW-MINTED CHRISTMAS ACROSTIC SONNET FROM SANTA CLAWS I HOPE MAY AMUSE YOU.

    Merry Christmas one and all today.
    Ululate with joy, sweet anthems sing.
    Elevate your spirits. Praise the King
    Lying newborn on His bed of hay.
    Lambs lie down with lions at His birth
    Eastern Magi come to bring Him gifts
    Rustic, humble scene the spirit lifts
    In awe as angels tell us of His worth
    Splendidly transcending earthly cares
    Altruism fair has come to reign
    Transforming duty’s dulness into pleasure.
    Understanding grain excels the tares
    Realistic vision saves us pain
    Doubtless yielding comfort beyond measure

    ~ Santa Claws
