Why Christians still have their children in ANY public school is beyond me. We took a major cut in our lifestyle so my wife (degree in nursing and psychiatry, music minor) could stay home and school our children personally. I know of several families who have given up lucrative careers and extravagant lifestyles so they could be hands on with their children.

One of those families is now running a church in Oregon and his son is his assistant Pastor. He thinks it was worth it.

My parents tightened their belts and sent me to parochial school in California for 8th grade, as 7th grade in a public junior high had been something of a disaster, even though I was in mentally gifted. Then we moved to Iowa, where public schools still had a lot of that 1950’s character (this was the mid 1970’s) and parochial wasn’t needed.
