Could the NEA have sent a recommended outline???????

Would not surprise me. That these "professional"educators indoctrinators are products of the same liberal education establishment they worship, is also plausible.

Bill Bennett's K-12 is gaining speed all across the nation. This will make "government sponsored" homeschooling possible. K-12 provides the computer and the programmed curriculum. The facilitator can be in a public school classroom or in a home. Problem is that the state(federally mandated) assessments will still drive the content.

I would assert that this is just the beginning of a push to move many kids out of traditional classrooms. Moms or Dads who are not employed could be paid a stipend of sorts to stay home and "educate" their children. Tuition (tax dollars) follow the child as does the government control.

All the press generated by "true" Homeschoolers have convinced many folks that homeschooling is the way to go and will accept the K-12 offer in a heartbeat not knowing that it is not the same "CHOICE".
