[quote=Anonymous]If OP is still reading (doubtful), here's advice from BTDT start up school parent. Assume 1/3 at most of your "friends" will actually do 1/2 the volunteering they think they can do. It's not personal, it's just life. It's like trying to run a hospital with one GP and a lot of candy stripers. Nobody's motive is in question. But there are skills that can't be addressed by good intentions. Maybe you could set up a secular branch of an existing parochial school that needs funds? Or maybe a school-within-a-school Montessori type program for youngest kids at JH. Bottom line: you can't screen kids for behavior in advance. And you can't force parents to be involved. No matter how much money is involved. (BTDT) Coop homeschool sounds about right for you. Good luck![/quote]
