Homeschool? Oh really?
What do you do when you can’t homeschool (both parents work) and Common Core is mandated by both the State and Federal governments even in the private school your child attends?
What we’ve done is put our kids in a catholic school. We’ve spoken to the teachers and principal about our concerns. While they will implement common core to keep up with state/fed requirements, they will work around it and teach the ‘old fashion’ way as well. Their reading will not be limited or indoctrinate-focused. At this point in time, it is our best option. And being there for them through their homework and reading.
In order to homeschool our children, we moved to a lower cost of living state that was also more homeschool friendly. My wife retired from corporate life almost 20 years ago. We drive old cars, live in a smallish house, and don't vacation in Europe.
Where there's a will there's a way.
