Parents who plan to or have homeschooled their kids would not be welcome in the public schools. Heck, they’d never be allowed to graduate from college with a teaching degree.

This statement is false. One of my coworkers has home-schooled all four of his children, and he has been promoted to Assistant Principal at one of the local high schools and is being fast tracked to Principal.

You're right. I should've said, "Parents who homeschool because they understand the goals of compulsory schooling, oppose those goals, and homeschool their children in order to prevent them from becoming victims of those goals would not be welcome in the public schools."

Perhaps your coworker doesn't fit that description. My apologies for lumping him in with alert and educated homeschoolers.
