[quote=Anonymous]I think this is very interesting and wonder if it will hold up. I believe that many families, including POC, found that school outside of school buildings eliminated problems like bullying and gave them a level of control that they did not want to give up. They feel more comfortable being in charge of their kids learning and safety and are distrustful of the public school system's ability to keep their kids safe. In addition, families of all races, when faced with the burden of working and attending to their kids' schooling during the day, realized that they would prefer to have their time structured in a way that works for their family, rather than as dictated by the public school day and calendar. Families who have the ability to homeschool appreciate being able to start the school day later, to eat lunch at reasonable times, and to incorporate more movement into the day to help kids maintain focus.
