To the best of my knowledge, home schoolers do better on the S.A.T.S. and the A.C.T.S. then do kids that go to schools. At least in NYS. A few of my friends are teachers and have had talks about this. The Union points out the socialization aspect to them, and hits on it alot, they also try and tell them that mostly white parents do this because they want to raise the kids racists, and blah blah blah. "Its the job of the teacher to sometimes undue the damage that a misguided parents may do". They also point out that fewer students in schools affects their budgets and salaries, it part of the reason teachers are so against it. Their union leadership will lie to them for its own purpose, I was surprised about the scores being better for home schooled kids though.

Their worldview does not include home-educated children who excel, think for themselves, and aren't under the leftist thumb!
