Back
in 2005 I wrote:
"In
the last 30 years, increasing numbers of families in the United
States have made the decision to educate their children at home.
While the history of the homeschool movement is heavily themed
with the idea that families choose to homeschool for Religious
reasons, more and more families are also choosing to homeschool
for academic reasons. It's not exactly new; up until 1850 most
children in America were educated at home.
Crowded schools, unsafe
schools, poor academics and peer pressure that discourages a student
from academic achievement have contributed to the plot of the
homeschool story. Between two and three million children in the
United States are learning at home. More and more we hear of families
who are choosing homeschooling for academic reasons."
It
seems to hold true seventeen years later....Because the academic
environment in 2020 and 2021 was disastrous for many families,
they are rediscovering these same reasons to homeschool.
