Homeschoolers Proving Skeptics Wrong

Filed under: Commentary

John Haney has a great article on News 6 / Knoxville’s site.

Home schooling is a growing trend earning more respect. Its supporters say that’s because it is getting results.

Statistics from the Dept. of Education show that children who learn at home read better and do better in math.

Home school students have standardized achievement test scores nearly 35 percent higher than public students. That means more and more elite colleges are choosing home school students in the application process.

Future employers are also taking notice.
