I don’t know of any homeschooler in PA who appreciates the PA homeschooling law. And I know a lot of people!
It’s a hassle, and in some school districts, not ours, the attitude of the school authorities is rather hostile to homeschooling. Every child homeschooled represents a large sum of money they don’t get from the state. In a district where, for example, they spend $10k on every public school student and less than $1k comes from local property tax, taking a kid out of the system means taking $9k out of their mitts. How much of the $10k is actually spent on the student in public school, versus how much is skimmed, I can only imagine. (I imagine more than half.)

I’m glad to hear PA homeschoolers oppose those regulations, too. I was given a different impression from a couple of homeschool moms I knew (in Real Life). I’ve read about some of the problems there with the regulations. Btw, thanks for the freepmail, and I sent you one, too.
