Yeah it takes money away from public school, it also takes a body out of the public school system thus in theory the money "lost" would balance with one less body in class.
As a parent I have no desire for my children to step foot in a public high school. We plan to send ours to private school instead and I'd love to get some of my school taxes refuned in the form of a voucher that I could use to help pay for their private school education.
Just sayin'...
edit: hey heddle watch who you color "gleeful" over this homeschool thing. Some, like me, could care less about the home school "system". I am neither gleeful nor concerned. |
Private High School in my area: $9,400.

One of the schools I have in mind for my daughter runs closer to 12k per year.
Yeah I'm all for vouchers :-)
