[quote=Anonymous]NP. I cannot believe that some people on this thread are complaining about homeschoolers. In Baltimore City, only 13% of 4th and 8th grade students are considered proficient in reading. In 4th grade math, 14% are proficient, and in 8th grade math, only 11% are proficient. Let those numbers sink in and then tell me what homeschooling has to do with anything. Obviously people can go through school and learn exactly nothing for 12 years. Every homeschooler I know makes sure their kids are advanced in reading, even when there are disabilities. And homeschoolers objectively academically outperform traditionally schooled children on every study that's ever been done.[/quote]
