Manning and Hogan scoff at Woodruff's fears. So what if somebody tries to pull a child out of traditional school to avoid a test. Test them if they come back. As of March, Delaware home school enrollment was 2,283, up from 1,912 last year. Ten years ago, it was 474.
Public schools get money based on enrollment.
Unlike charter schools, home schools get no money from the state. Pardon me for sounding smug, but it can't be about educational quality. Our kids run circles around public school kids. It's about money and power. Data collected and analyzed by the Home School Legal Defense Association seems to bear out Hogan's assertion about the educational superiority for home schooling.
