Home schooling ripped by Obama education chief
The Washington Examiner ^ | September 23, 2016 | Paul Bedard

"I worry that in a lot of cases students who are homeschooled are not getting the kind of the breadth of instruction experience they would get in school, they're also not getting the opportunity to build relationships with peers unless their parents are very intentional about it," said Education Secretary John B. King Jr.

"And they're often not getting those relationships with teachers and mentors other than their parents. I do worry whether home school students are getting the range of opportunities we hope for for all kids," he said slamming the system.

Anyone who tries to defend public education probably went to a public school.

Is,it true that Obama’s first action as Pres was to shut down school choice for African Americans in DC?

Of course, after escaping gay trolling, aka antibullying in schools, the real fault is the superior ed experience ordinary parents give without NEA oversight.

“Khadaffy’d be alive if he’d given $10 million to Clinton”

Maybe homeschoolers could have a chance if they each gave $10 per year to the NEA

They are not being indoctrinated, that’s what he doesn’t like.

Translation: Home schooled kids are not getting the socialist indoctrination that is required for them to be drones in society.
I teach music privately and without fail my best students are those that are home schooled.
Also, they are more at ease in social situations than the public schoolers.
Also, I have yet to have one come in doped up on Ritlin.
In truth, home schoolers are hated for two reasons.. they excel and they are more often than not Christian.

How many of Obama’s cabinet members are black? Asking for a friend.

And parents who home school, god bless ‘em, will never know the joy of seeing $5,000 worth of orthodontic braces bent and mangled from their kid being attacked on school grounds by disadvantaged youths.
