Homeschoolers taking SAT/ACT tests
AVERAGE
in the 86th percentile.
Meatballs
We are the C.I.T.s, so pity us;
The kids are brats, the food is hideous.
We're gonna smoke and drink and fool around ..
(We're nookie-bound) ..
We're the Northstar C.I.T.s
This is the same statement the NEA has had on homeschooling for many years.
COMPREHENSIVE
Right there is the keyword. To them, that mean little Johnny and little Suzie are not getting told that :
I am SICK of these LIBERAL PUKES!
- they can fornicate at will
- question their gender
- to divide 16 by 4 they will need 3 sheets of paper
- they evolved
- the earth is overheating
- liberalism is superior
- America is bad
- white people are bad
- Obama is good
- they can only have one packet of catsup
- "everyone is a winner"
- they can't pray
- their writing can't include anything about their faith in God
- they need to wait until everyone catches up before they can learn anything new
- guns are bad
Oh gosh, I loved that silly movie.
Of four kids, all homeschooled all the way, I’ve got two in college. Both are in BA programs in ballet; the older once received a lesson from Misty Copeland, and the younger just finished a couple of weeks at L’Abri. Kid number three is shaping up for a military career, and kid number four is entirely likely to become a homeschooling mom. They all test head and shoulders above their grade levels on the standardized tests, partly because we never gave a rat’s appendix for “grade levels.”
I think history may well bear out that the USA has been the best thing Great Britain ever did. :D
1) That government teacher is **very** likely a LIAR who inflates grades, and makes fraudulent diplomas possible. Government teachers lie to their students, the parents, and ultimately the taxpayers.
2) This person was likely not one of the brightest bulbs on his/her college campus.
3) Was thoroughly indoctrinated in his/her college of education by godless Marxists in a Marxist-run college of education.
4) Thinks they are underpaid.
6) And....Absolutely believes they are candidates for the Mother Teresa award of the year!
You have good reason to be very satisfied with what your children have accomplished.
God is good.
Oh, I remember the Education majors in college. They partied at a rate that made the Humanities majors look like pikers... and no, they weren’t the sharpest bulbs in the deck. :D
Grade levels: mine never knew how to answer the question. It was a matter of which subject.
One in grad school, cum laude BS, Aerospace Engineering, VT
The other used to struggle with math, loves to read constantly and has a character that any parent would love in their child.
I’m not bragging. There is no way that HS is less effective than public school.
My children are socialized and entertaining. They are accustomed to “hanging” with people of all ages - not just their grade-level peers (whatever that might be.)
It’s amazing what children can accomplish when they don’t know they can’t. Seriously, one of my major objections to public schooling is that it hobbles children with low expectations.
Well stated, thanks.
