Our Homeschool Philosophy

Why do we homeschool? As education is largely accomplished by imitation, exposing our children to the greatest works of literature, art, music, and persons of virtue and accomplishment throughout the history of western civilization, will train their minds, souls and will to be great. We have chosen to homeschool to encourage our children to both know and love what have been the greatest achievements of civilization and to understand the unity underlying them; a unity that leads back to one loving, merciful God of all. We endeavor to provide a discovery-based, literate and enthusiastic environment where lifelong learning become self-initiated and self-fulfilling. As children of God we will strive always to know, love and serve God through discovering God's gifts to us and sharing our God-given gifts with others.

Its not that expensive to set up a domain for email purposes for a local (or even nationwide) homeschooling group and treat it like a private school.

Problem solved.

Besides, as mentioned in the comments in the link, Facebook is a private company that has every right to control its members by policy. One of the ways they control the QUALITY of persons on the network is through this verification process.
