One of the things we learned before we started homeschooling many years ago (mid 80's I think ... can't really remember), was that a lot of time is wasted in gov't. schools just changing classes.

Add to that the study halls, ashtray making class, gym (as a separate class and not part of everyday life) and a slew of et cetera's ... the actual study/learning time is only about 4 or 5 hours.

A quick learner (one who says, "Heyyyy, I can do THIS .. ) soon get's his or her day down to a manageable time from 7 or 8 AM to around noon ... school's out.


Considering WV is Rural with a capital R, everyone rides a (more often than not), bumpy ride from 6AM (the earliest I'VE ever known) to about 830AM and returns home the same way. That's about 5 hrs creating and aggravating scoliosis.

Add that 2-6 hr bus ride to approx 2 hrs total classs change/lunch (not including study hall etc.) ... you have a day of indoctrination pretty much equaling the amount of time it takes to go to and fro.
