I enjoyed Brian AtLee's response to recent news about homeschoolers defecting to public schools" in Home schooling remains strong alternative. There have been some homeschoolers who have started using public school online resources. Brian says: "I would be willing to wager there are more students in public schools who are turning to home schooling than there are home-schooled students turning to online curricula with public schools."
Bullying is a serious problem in many public schools. Clinton Woman Publishes Book on Bullying is about a mother's successful effort to rescue her son. She took her son out of public school and homeschooled him. Candy Beard, the mother, wrote "Please Don`t Do That; A Story About Bullying in School." I think more parents would yank their children sooner if they realized that homeschooling is very doable.
From the Atlanta Journal-Constitution is an article on 2 champs at home school spelling bee. The Discover Mills mall had a spelling contest for homeschoolers. The most interesting thing to me was that the mall has a kids' club with 12,000 members, 3,000 of them are homeschoolers.
