Great question.
I was homeschooled, and there was plenty of accounting hassle involved, even for one teaching parent of one student.
There are so many laws and regulations involved, it's hard to imagine micro schools surviving. Teachers still need credentials, too. Private schools are still so hamstrung, they are virtually working for the state.
That deck is stacked.
My wife works,in our local K-8 school district. My sister teaches math to inner city middle schoolers. Their inside-tje-beast stories are just unbelievable.
Yes, indeed! There was plenty of mandatory paperwork to the government.
Even though my 3 children were enrolled in the community college ( with 4.0 averages) the county school district still required their paperwork. Their college transcripts were not enough to satisfy them.
