• Volume 10 Number 26 Bauman: Home Schooling in the United States Table 1 shows the number of home schooled children age 6 to 17 estimated from these data sources. Taken at face value, they show a growth from 360,000 in 1994 to 790,000 in 1999. By 1999, then, around 1.7 percent of children in the 6 to 17 age range were schooled at home. A 95 percent confidence interval for the 1999 figure goes from 670,000 to 910,000. Even at the high end of the range, the home-school population is under 1 million and less then 2 percent of all children 6-17.

To achieve the goals stated @Free Republic will require a complete overhaul of government schools &/or a rapid rise in the homeschooling rate. F.R. can't remediate the masses who have been marinated for 12-20yrs in the dogma of Darwin, Marx, Wellhausen, Dewey, Freud, Keynes, Kierkegaard (Seven Men Who Rule the World from the Grave), Antonio Gramsci and Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche.

Thank you. I wasn't doubting your stats, though. You've done an incredible job on this thread.

Thank you for the details. It does seem that home schooling is becoming more popular.
