This is about eroding the plenary rights of parents.
Homeschool kindergarten, you bet.
This is a VERY stupid mandate; not to mention useless for many of those kids!
Worse.
It will give more money to the districts throughg millages.
All those unemployed “sociology” graduates get paid.
Ironically, they will be hired to teach STEM classes...to kindergarteners.
TOO EARLY!!!
It’s about getting children into the hands of sex criminals.
When I was in kindergarten, it lasted only until noon and involved mostly socialization skills and culture. From what I understand, today it lasts as long as a regular school day and the instruction includes reading, writing and math. Not sure if all-day kindergarten is a good idea.
Exactly.
There’s a terrific little book written by some educators called *Better Late than Early*. It’s by Drs Moore and Moore, a husband wife team.
They advocate for formal education to start at some time between the ages of 8-10, saying that’s when kids are physically ready for formal schooling. And they can learn in one year what they’ve been cooped up in school for 4-7 years learning. IOW, there’s no advantage at all to starting kids in kindergarten.
...because the less time they spend learning from their parents (unless they are leftists) the better.
This ping list is for the other articles of interest to homeschoolers about education and public school. This can occasionally be a fairly high volume list. Articles pinged to the Another Reason to Homeschool List will be given the keyword of ARTH. (If I remember. If I forget, please feel free to add it yourself)
The main Homeschool Ping List handles the homeschool-specific articles. I hold both the Homeschool Ping List and the Another Reason to Homeschool Ping list. Please freepmail me to let me know if you would like to be added to or removed from either list, or both.
Plank #10 of the Communist Manifesto: Free Education for All Children in Public Schools...

Kindergarten is now where toddlers get to learn how to manipulate their genitals and decide if they want to be Fred or Wilma before they grow up.
it's simply another ploy to gather more teacher money...more teachers,more stranglehold on the tax payers.
Why? I’m amazed Michigan doesn’t have an existing law..
Early indoctrination is where it’s at
Little boys are too restless at that age.
The result is, those little boys tune out, and develop
decidedly negative traits as it relates to studying.
I have a family member that became the Director of the
Education department for a parochial school system in
the state of Texas.
She stated that boys get into the right grove around
seven and pick up after that.
These rules are geared to turning our little kids into
brains full of mush on social issues.
