The Taylors will be homeschooling on the road for a year. This article reports:
"Dan and Jennifer Taylor are a lot like most parents: They want their children to be educated and understand the world around them. Unlike a lot of other parents, however, the Taylors have decided that the best way to get that education is to go to the horse’s mouth–wherever in the US that mouth might be.
Last December the Taylors made a $135,000 investment in the children’s education. They bought a Class A motorhome and started planning a year-long educational odyssey for 8-year old Mason and 6-year old Griffin. A few days ago, the day after one of Memphis, Tennessee’s rare snowfalls, off they went."
The Taylors will be recording their experience at their web site Driven to Educate.
I am tempted to join them. If I could just find a job that would let me work on the road.
