RE: Idaho Virtual Academy
Yes, thanks, I can read. However, it is public school taught at home and
it seems to be and affordable complement to homeschooling. I assume the
students will be counted as part of the public school enrollment? Where
does the line between homeschooling and home-public schooling end/start?
Do you determine that only on the basis of funding? Or what? How is this
thing funded? It sounds like a business of sorts but must be funded via
tax money?
Anyone? Anyone? Bueller???
And please quit assuming I am anti-homeschooling or pro-public schooling.
I think it's wonderful to have so many choices that parents and kids will
feel comfortable with and to allow students to thrive, no matter what. Of
course, I have been brainwashed by years of government schooling. However,
I was also brainwashed with way more religious education and managed to
overcome that...
