[quote=Anonymous][b]Interesting outcome from the pandemic. I don't think we've seen this large a percentage of U.S. children schooled at home (or on the road) by parents since the Little House on the Prairie days.[/b] https://sports.yahoo.com/more-11-us-households-homeschooling-174700845.html [img]https://i.dailymail.co.uk/1s/2021/08/31/23/47347187-9944957-image-a-10_1630450661280.jpg[/img] Census data shows that homeschooling families grew at a rapid rate from 1999 to 2012 before plateauing at around 3.3% of the entire U.S. population. Recent events, including the pandemic, caused a massive spike in families looking for alternatives to traditional learning. The data also showed that more diverse demographics have opted to turn away from traditional learning. Approximately 9.7% of white families have retreated to homeschooling, along with 12.1% of Hispanic families, 8.8% of Asian families, and 16.1% of black families, according to the report.[/quote]
