I home schooled in the state of Washington, a notorius blue state, where every year I had to register my home student. No biggy for either of us.
It appears Washington just keeps track of homeschoolers. I was supposed to keep records and did for the first 18 months. As they never contacted me, and he was tested annually for progress by a public school teacher who operated an independent testing business (his own daughter was home schooled), I slacked off on the record keeping. My student was excelling across the board on all subjects.
He was capable of taking the GED during the summer of his 16th year, but slacked off until his 17th birthday, and took the test a couple days afterwards. He passed with better than average scores.
That the state of Illinois has decided to keep better track of who is being home schooled shouldn’t panic anyone.
except that its none of their damned business. They don’t need to track, grade, test or anything. They should have NOTHING whatsoever to do with it.
Thats the scary part from the mouth of the Nazi.
Speak for yourself. I enjoy my liberty and the law is unnecessary. We don't need it.
I have an idea!
Government kiddie prison workers ( Oops! “school employees”) are doing a flamingly horrible job with its charges. Maybe Homeschooling parents ( who are doing spectacularly well with their students) should be put in charge of them!
Move to OK...and we had to submit that we were meeting some OK requirements...( Teaching Oklahoma History, and total hours of study ) It was nothing.........
For CA being such a Lefty State....we never had one problem there. But, I've heard that it depended on the School District that you lived in.
