OP here

We started because we lived in an area with terrible schools but loved the area otherwise. We have since moved. We now live in an area with decent schools and a great local Catholic school but continue to homeschool because:

a) Homeschooling is giving my children an excellent education. They receive a rigorous classical education that is just not available in schools. They learn things like diagraming sentences, memorizing capitals of countries worldwide, and receive a history education that is truly global.
b) My husband is an immigrant and we have more time to incorporate cultural aspects, such as second language lessons.
c) One of my children has since been identified as 2e-- working several grades beyond age, but is very hyperactive. This child would not be served well in a traditional school setting. The 2 hours spent in a co-op classroom is about this child's limit.[/quote]
