A Homeschooling Manifesto



Education is about accumulating knowledge. It's not about doing time.

*****

Children are individuals. One child might learn faster or slower than another child, and that's okay.

*****

A child might learn some subjects faster or slower than that same child learns other subjects, and that's okay too.

*****

Children are more likely to be enthusiastic about their own education if they have some input into what they will study, and as to how they will study it.

*****

There is no failing to learn a subject; there is only continued study and practice until that subject is learned.

*****

Homeschooling does not have to be very time-consuming, nor does it have to be difficult to manage.

*****

If you are not required by law to mimic the limitations of your local school system, then why should you?
