Do you remember the U.S Secretary of Education John King making snide comments about homeschoolers back during the Obama administration? Many of us were a little worried that our educational freedoms were about to be put to the test! Yet here we are reading on the official US Department of Education’s blog about a military family’s successful Christian homeschooling experience! Is the US Dept. of Education softening their stance on homeschooling?

 

This article with a positive spin on homeschooling was part of the RethinkSchool series the USED blog ran this month. The article, “Military Family Finds Homeschooling to be Just the Right Fit profiles a large military family as they share and discuss why homeschooling is a great choice for them.

Is this a good sign? We sure hope so!! To read the article, click here.
