We were able to better control who our daughter spends time with and help her make good life-decisions all through school.
Public schools are filled with kids you'd never let in your door - why would you want your kids spending 8 hours a day with them and being negatively influenced?

What suggestions do you have for educating those kids ?
.
The model of localized, local-control, locally funded public school America still tends to follow, I believe, grew out of a “homeschooling” concept.
When I was a kid, I remember a very old great uncle telling me about his one-room school house, which his father, and the other fathers in his town, helped build.
Parents built the school. parents chose the teachers. Parents had a commonly accepted view of what should be taught. Parents set every rule and regulation.
Once again, our statist, “progressive,” ideological, corrupt political nanny-staters, have twisted and are in the process of destroying this superior concept of education.
Do we go back to the one-room school house? Of course not - but like so many things, the bureaucracy must be destroyed, and rights, as well as responsibility, returned to the lowest level.
