Why We Homeschool News

post #1 of 2
Thread Starter 
I LOVE the Why We Homeschool News!
IMO a really good look at current events across the US that helps me find articles to share with friends when they ask why we homeschool.
http://www.whywehomeschool.com/
The website, there is also an email newsletter you can subscribe to.

Headlines this week in the public school section include~~
Toronto Family Sues Teacher over Kissing, Love Letters
Canadian Teacher Who 'Groomed' Students Still Teaching
Penn. Board Bans Non-Immunized Homeschoolers
California Teacher Binds and Tapes Children
NZ Principal Sacked Over Porn Viewing

On school choice~~
US Census Study: Homeschooling It Is
Poll Finds Most Blacks Favor Charter, Private Schools

There are also links to articles pro-homeschooling, about testing, research, International newsbriefs etc.. disclaimer--I am not associated with this website at all, but think that is is a wonderful resource and wanted to share. This might be a spot to start if you are on the fence about homeschooling.
