Though only a small fraction of children are now being home schooled, it is the fastest growing area of primary education today. Much more important than its size, is what it teaches all of us. ORDINARY AMERICANS ARE BETTER TEACHERS THAN MANY PUBLIC SCHOOL TEACHERS.

THAT is the message which the National "Edukashun" Union and its wholely-owned subsidiary, the Democrat Party, don't want the American people to get. But according to the dramatically-reversed results in the Gallup poll, the people have already gotten that message.

Now it is time to make the politicans and school boards that still don't get it, to pay the price and be driven from office. Click the second link below.

What does that tell you? It doesn't have a lot of momentum right now but it is catching on. Good.

"ORDINARY AMERICANS ARE BETTER TEACHERS THAN MANY PUBLIC SCHOOL TEACHERS."

I keep getting survey requests from teachers working on their doctorates in education...they think they can jump into the HS community and counsel the HS families on what curriculum to use. This just boggles my mind. They don't get it. It doesn't take a doctorate to decide upon curriculum that is flexible to begin with, all it takes is attentive and loving parenting and some good catalogues. We know our children better than any teacher could. Home education is a 24 hour lifestyle, not a job.

I can personally attest to that. The number of spelling, grammatical, and logical errors in the memos was the big wake-up call for me in my first year of teaching.
