OK, the school district receives funds for services for every special ed student who is enrolled in their school. If the student is not enrolled, they don’t get the funds. Now, this could go two ways, the state could provide the funds that would be passed on to homeschoolers, allowing the state and/or local school district a say in the home schooling, or the school district could refuse to fund special services and give up all control of the home school education.
Accepting public funds has a price. When my daughter was in kindergarten in New Jersey, we lived in a very rural school district which refused all state and federal money, so that they wouldn’t have to give up autonomy. My daughter had fifteen children in her kindergarten class and those that were already reading were pulled out and sent to the reading specialist for reading, instead of wasting time on learning the alphabet. -—and yes, they had both morning and afternoon classes with fifteen kids each.
:-0 What school district was that? We live in that state, and I may want to move there. ;-)
