Why we homeschool Wednesday

posted Wednesday, September 27, 2006 :: 9:52 AM

We homeschool because children are more likely to lose their innocence in school rather than their ignorance of reading, writing, or ’rithmetic. These stories are just from the last week. I left out the one where a teacher cannibalized a student because it was just too disgusting, but that was from last week too.

Columbia police: schoolteacher charged with lewd acts against student
X- rated font used on third grade handout (why is that font on a school computer?)
Teacher gets six years for [s-x]ual assualt of student
Ex- coach receives 21 years for [s-x]ual abuse
‘Gay month’ at schools irks some parents
Middle school teacher pleads guilty to federal charges of [s-x]ual misconduct with minors
Teacher found guilty of [s-x] with 14- year old student
California bills would turn K- 12 students into ‘[s-x]ualized activists’

"The Story of the Romans provides an introductory context for the culture and ideas so foundational to the development of Western thought.”

"For new and veteran homeschool families alike, this extensive new release from the editors of The Old Schoolhouse Magazine serves as a homeschool convention in a book. It details today's most viable education models, helping parents formulate an educational game plan and choose teaching methodologies. There are more than twenty contributors." Including Christine Miller, who wrote a chapter on Classical Education.

christine's reading

I am researching the holy days which were instituted by God as a celebration of the Messiah, instead of celebrating the holy days which were instituted by man to honor nature in place of nature's God.

christine's listening to

This is a new CD, and it has proven to be the most beautiful, reverent worship music we own yet. Tom Ewing is the gifted worship pastor at Resurrection Fellowship in Loveland, Colorado.
