Something needs to be done about this...
Where are the South Carolina Freepers?
Helloooo....
I know public schools are a necessity for some families.
I realize it takes two incomes, sometimes three to
just 'break even' these days.
I have home schooled my son from the time he could speak.
I became a stay at home dad to do this.
We are in our eighth year as teacher/student.
Home schooling is not for everyone.
Between annual dues to SCAIHS (South Carolina Association Independent Home Schools),
HSLDF (Home School Legal Defense Fund) and text/work books,
we spend close to $1500.00/child.
Peace of mind knowing my child is well educated in all
areas, politically aware, and most of all safe from
druggies, shootings, perverts, etc... priceless.
Oh, I get that question, about my son being "anti-social",
from liberal poofs all the time. Take five
minutes with my son and ask him any question and he'll
give a point by point reply of his views. I might add
that I guarantee you'll understand him.
Yet, he's not mouthy or rude.
As for Irmo High School, sorry for their loss.
For the Yellow Jackets will lose. That school district has the very
best of all that can be offered to students, physically and materially.
I have loads of friends that graduated from Irmo High.
Many are home schoolers these days.
Look into these links for more info on SCAIHS
Be sure to check out HSLDA for court reports and defenses across the nation.
These folks have a real grasp on what it takes to educate children today to be great citizens tomorrow. If you are thinking of home schooling in SC, feel free to FReepmail me with any questions. I don't know all but I usually know where the answers are located.
If this is true I would think folks down here would be up in arms.
