re: Home schooling has become America’s fastest-growing form of education

My son was home schooled from 5th through 8th grade. I wanted him to go to high school and was honestly worried he'd be a bit behind the other kids since honestly, he only did "school" about 2 hours a day.

When taking placement testing, his reading was at a college level and everything was above grade level except for math.

After about 3 weeks of school at a good private school, he swapped to some honors classes and made excellent grades the first 9 weeks.

Due to the complexity of the math, my wife was at her academic limit for teaching. She did great until 9th grade though.
