Quiet Revolt in Education


For John, BLUFIn the interest of full disclosure, I have four grandchildren being home schooled.  Nothing to see here; just move along.




Here is the sub-headline:

Government officials should use the success of the competition as an educational moment.

From Reason Magazine, by Correspondent J.D. Tuccille, 22 January 2019.

Here is the lede:

There's no better sign of success than an escalation in attacks by your enemies. Based on such evidence, homeschooling is enjoying a boom, as growing numbers of families with diverse backgrounds, philosophies, and approaches abandon government-controlled schools in favor of taking responsibility for their own children's education.  As they do so, they're coming under assault from officials panicking over the number of people slipping from their grasp.
Yes.

Hat tip to the InstaPundit.
