I agree. I have often wondered about taking the home school to the community level. Create community outreach programs that kids can home school together if they choose. Maybe this already exists, but I think it could add an element of choice in the truest sense of the word to our failing illiberal school systems.
I have a solution. I posted it on another thread on this same topic:
Wintertime
Solution: Private scholarship foundations providing private vouchers to PRIVATE schools!
IT IS COMPLETELY POSSIBLE TO DO THIS!!!! ( I am shouting. I hope someone will hear!)
Harvard has a $35 BILLION dollar endowment, and many, many of the colleges and universities have billion and multi-multi-million dollar endowments as well. Hey! Exeter, the elite prep school is close to a billion.
If conservatives WANTED, they COULD give every child in this nation an education that respected the Constitution, the free market, and the Judeo Christian philosophy that makes all freedom possible. Not only could conservatives do this for the children of this nation, they could likely do it for every child in the WORLD. We ARE that rich as a nation!
Imagine! Please imagine.
Imagine armies of young people entering college fully prepared with arguments needed to thoroughly defeat their Marxist professors. Soon they would be taking their place in the hall of academia as well.
Conservatives, (Christian and non-Christian) could turn this country completely around.
Imagine schools that were inspected and certified by these conservative scholarship foundations. Conservative children could have the most excellent education ever provided to any child since the dawn of humankind.
If the Marxists can gain control of the educational establishment, so can conservatives!
Once those children are OUT of the government schools, their parents, friends, and neighbors can organize a MASSIVE school tax revolt. It is time to SHUT DOWN the Marxist madrassses that mis-named “public” schools!
It does. At least it does in my community, which is in a state where homeschooling is readily permitted. Been there; done that.
