PING!

Of interest to homeschoolers...

Also here's a link from an FR homeschooler to a blog with more about Pluto's demotion: Click here.

This ping list is for the "other" articles of interest to homeschoolers about education and public school. If you want on/off this list, please freepmail me. The main Homeschool Ping List by DaveLoneRanger handles the homeschool-specific articles.

Does anyone know whether this body's vote will effect science textbooks,

Now they'll have to rewrite all the science texts and sell them to the schools so the kids have the lastest and greatest until the next major change in science comes along. Hmmm, maybe I should buy stock in the textbook companies....
